My son is exactly the same way. As for running in the street that should get better in a couple of years. My son is 12 and it just sank in about a year ago that you can't just run out in the street without thinking first. My son will also be heartbroken many times. I swear he has loved girls since he was born. Try telling a 4 year old why he is to young for a girlfriend when he innocently just doesn't get it because he doesn't even understand what a girlfriend is. He would stand up to the bullies to protect any girl but won't stand up to them to protect himself (go figure). My son is smart in school too but the common sense is just lacking. He just wants to make sure everyone is happy. I love him dearly but there will be lots of broken hearts in his future.
Sounds like we have the same version! I worry about her, just as I'm sure you do about your son. As much as we tell her things, if a stranger ever said "come with me" I'm sure she'd go. She just doesn't "think" most of the time. My precious little monkey. I love her so much.
