Default Your Yorkie.....& Children

Okay...this is my question.

How do you all feel about your Yorkie being around children? Particularly when you first adopt a Yorkie. My Lou'e is about 1lb a couple ounces...and I live in my boyfriend's Mom's basement apartment...she goes down to check on him from time to time...but her grandkids do come over often and I don't want her to get the idea of allowing them down there to "play" with them. One is aged 4, the other 2. They can be pretty rough as I have seen them with her own dog (who is a Jack Russel, a bit chunky too).
I am just incredibly afraid as I have heard stories of children squeezing them a bit much or just dropping them...thinking they are "stuffed animals".
How do I go about this? Should I just tell her I don't want them around? Am I being a bit too paranoid?
I am turning into a crazy dog lady!! Hahaha. But I am cool with it.
