I think there are situations where children and very small yorkies don't belong together. Many of us have seen the results of mixing very young children and yorkies on YT. There have been some very sad accidents, which resulted in the death of the yorkies. Just a few I can remember involved children running through the house and stepping on a yorkie; a toddler falling on a yorkie in the yard; and a young girl falling into a baby gate smashing the yorkie on the other side.
