Vigilant vs prudent
This question relates to:French writing exercise "A day with my daughter"
Asked 2 years ago
Hi M,
Reading the intro text only, I suspect that "vigilant" is the most appropriate when supervising a very young child. The sense is attentive (careful).
Prudent takes more a sense of sage, circumspect, and cautious.
Hope this helps.
Jim
