The Bottom Line Kids will be kids. Parents will be......{insert any frantic sounding adjective here}
That's right, folks...nothing! Kids are "always" going to find new and exciting ways of injuring themselves and driving self conscious parents right over the brink...no matter if they are locked in a rubber room with a padded door. And if, in complete and utter frustration, that were the last resort, that would be the exact moment in time that the children would choose to learn gymnastics and see how hiddiously they could contort their bodies as they flew through the air. Sharp corners and furniture that is easily tipped are, in an experienced mother's opinion, the least of your worries. Those little darlings will stroll right past all the plastic coated edges onto bigger and more exciting things. That baby gate you installed is no barrier. It's actually a step ladder that they can use to climb onto the bansiter and shimmy down the staircase railing at lightening speed. Those electrical socket caps become chew toys and the plastic U-shaped cabinet lock evolves into a handle for added leverage when climbing to higher altitudes. No amount of child-proofing can safeguard a child against himself. He will always find the dangerous side of anything...even if it's as innocent as an apple seed lodged in his nose because he wanted to see if it would fit.  |
