You additionally lose all sense of perspective; anything which could potentially affect your children in a negative way MUST BE DESTROYED.
I'm told the usual way OUT of this is more children -- eventually jadedness overcomes this attitude. However, I don't recommend it. Better to never start.
(Full disclosure: I'm 30, no children)
