You can never be too careful

The six-year old who fell to her death last April 3, 2015 while playing near an escalator in Kuala Lumpur is all over the news.  This very sad incident should remind all parents out there to be extra vigilant when caring for their kids.


We should not only be vigilant in caring for our babies, we need to be even more vigilant in the care of older children because they are the ones who suddenly run off somewhere before we can even say: "STOP!"


Caring for our children is a life-long process. Our kids need various types of care as they grow older.  Especially with the advent of technology when we can be distracted by our phones, the internet, and what have-yous.


Let this article below remind us that One second of neglect can mean a lifetime of regret.

Vigilance is key.  Let's keep our children safe and hope it never happens to anyone again.
