I bought a wooden coffee table and now have a 1 year old who loves to
beat on it. So I bought a cut glass top to protect the wood however,
the glass slides around and it is not safe. I have tried the little
plastic spacers the glass company gave me but it still moves. I have
also bought every silicone stopper of every shape and size I can find
and it still moves. I don't want to ruin the finish on the table
trying to get the glass to stay on and I don't want my daughter
beating on the table. The glass is just not safe. PLEASE help I want
to keep the glass from moving.

Thank you for you comments

MY child rearing is NOT the problem. The GLASS is the problem. If any
one young or old touches it it moves. I am more concerned about the
glass coming off the table and hurting someone. If you so much as
even put the littlest amount of pressure on it moves and not a little
bit it can move several inches.

Just leave it be. When the kid breaks the glass and gets cut up she'll
learn that beating on glass is not the smartest idea in the world.

Now, my question is why you put _glass_ on the table to protect it from
the kid beating on it. Personally I'd rather have a beat up table than
a cut up kid.
