I do not ever leave her unsupervised around them and they are not allowed to pick her up or to run even slightly close to her. I have a constant eye on them when they are petting her. When I am too busy to watch them with her, I put her in the Master Bathroom and my kids know to leave her until I go back and get her. I undertsand why some breeders will not sell to people with young children, but thank goodness my breeder looks at each buyer as individuals or we wouldn't have Livi. I have taught my children how fragile she is, even though she likes to play with them...my children respect this and are gentle with her.
