New CDC Report on Child Safety and Injuries
The CDC has released a report on child injuries which is
fascinating and very instructive. I'll
write on this in greater detail over the next few weeks, but I highly recommend
that parents take a look at the report for themselves. One very sobering statistic - every day in
the
- The majority of deaths were from five causes: falls, being struck by or against an object, overexertion, motor vehicle deaths, and animal bites or insect stings.
- Falls were the leading cause of non-fatal injuries, accounting for approximately 2.8 million emergency room visits (one of whom was our son Michael when he was 14 months old - but he's got the walking thing down now).
- Leading causes of fatal injuries per age group - suffocation was the cause of two-thirds of deaths for children under 1 year of age, drowning was the major cause for children 1-4, and for 5-19 year olds, the leading cause was being an occupant in a motor vehicle crash.

I agree. Kids and even babies love to climb furnitures and stuff. They can climb out of cribs and fall. Kids 3-5 years of age usually climb cabinets, they either fall or have the cabinet fall on them.
I find this post very sad because i really can't imagine these sweet little humans being in danger. the reality is too cruel sometimes.
This is sad. The way to stop all this madness is to teach parents about how they can prevent this type of accidental death. Children must be watched ALWAYS. They do not know what can kill them, what can hurt them, or what can make them miserable. Why would we not watch their backs for them?
Thanks for posting this report by the CDC. It's so important to get this information out there for parents to see. Unfortunatley, most people don't take important safety precautions seriously until after something actually happens.

I assume I should use a power surge protector with the massive number of electronics in my place. Would it be less expensive to get a power surge protector for the whole house such as this whole house surge protector that this review site talks about? Appears like it would be less expensive to buy 1 good protector for the whole house against having one for everywhere I am in possession of a lot of electronics. What do you people think?
