Keeping Children and Poison Apart
Unlike in cartoons, children can’t identify poison by the skull and crossbones on the bottle. It would be nice if they could understand signs such as on the picture to the left, but even if there were such a label, a child wouldn’t recognize harmful substances. In truth, parents are often not aware of the prevalence of toxic substances. Preventing children access to every dangerous substance in the home is simple; however, as with defending against other dangers, a degree of diligence is required in the short run. Keeping complacency at bay is necessitated for the long run. Here are some suggestions to keep poisons away from your child, along with some common examples of dangerous household items.
