What this archetype looks like
Your kids know you are on their side. You protect fast and fiercely. The good part is deep safety and loyalty. The hard part is that protection can become overprotection if your child never gets to struggle, negotiate or recover without you. What helps is staying close enough to back them up while still letting the world teach them small lessons.
