As your child gets older you can teach them and talk to them about the dangers around them. Teaching your children is a very important safety measure that is too often neglected. It is never too early to teach them. Do you have a smoke detector in your home. If not, they can easily be injured on the playground or anywhere else by a small piece of glass.
Children fall from trees, ladders, roofs and other high places every day.
They can also be injured from lesser falls such as falling from chairs, and other objects. While not as dangerous as a fall from a higher location, these falls can also cause serious injuries. Your teenager is just as much at risk for accidents. Teenagers feel invincible and immortal. They feel they will not get hurt and they push themselves to the limit, flirting with danger.
