Keeping Children Safe Worldwide

I am not a degreed expert when it comes to child safety and I have no formal training outside of being a mother and caring for the welfare of children everywhere. This group was created to share information I've come across as well as start discussions with others on child safety. Welcome to the group!

This week's video: Being thrown into a car can really hurt, get expert tips and advice on child safety in this free video.

Expert: Karina Fraley
Bio: Karina Fraley is the official mom for mommywood.com. In addition to her work for Expert Village and mommywood.com, she is working on a children's crafting book and a documentary on food allergies.

This is a dangerous world we live in now. We as adults need to come to terms with that, I see adults to busy shopping while the kids wander off, or left in a cart while Mom wanders down an isle. Children waiting at a corner after school cause Mom or Dad are running late. So, I guess my question is, what do you do with stupid people?? Oh, they'll learn when the kid can't be found, we've all heard the story to many times. We could start training all children here early like other countries do, I don't know, I wish we had the answers. Watch your 6 and DTA(don't trust anyone). Yea, I know, but it's kept me alive for along time.

A good forum especially for grandparents hosting their loved grand children. We get lax forgetting little people don't think for themselves.
