Are the children of our country safe?

NO!
Does that worry you? The children of our country are not safe, and here's why... This evening I read an article from Herald News, the town of Fall River is where they were located when this incident happened. On July 6, of 2009 a lady was driving through the town at the speed limit posted when suddenly a kid jumped out in front of her. She swerved so she would not hit the kid but then noticed that his mother happened to be standing right there. She then chased him away from the car. Parents, do you teach your kids how to walk across the street? If not here are the rules you should follow. Look both ways, walk on a cross walk, always hold the hand of an adult, and wait for the correct signal.

We are worried that if anyone else was driving the car the kid would be dead. This woman had a very good driving record, never sped, never texted, did makeup, ate, or drank while driving. She always looked where she was going. If this would have been any other driver doing any one of those things the kid could be dead from careless driving.

Do you leave your kids in the car to just run in and get something? Do you leave them buckled? How would they get away if something were to happen? Think about your actions before doing them! Make this world a safer place for all of us. Be worried about the safety of others and encourage others to be worried as well and do something about the safety of our next generation. The Kids!
