"Injuries are the leading cause of death among children in industrialized nations."
"The bottom line is that multifaceted programs
that include parent education are effective in reducing childhood
injury," lead study author Dr. Denise Kendrick, of the University of
Nottingham, told Reuters Health."
"When the researchers combined the findings of
all the studies, they found that parent education cut children's injury
risk by 18 percent. In addition, several individual studies showed that
parents who received skills training took more steps to protect their
children from household hazards -- like lowering the temperature on
water heaters, covering electrical sockets and putting locks on
cabinets to prevent accidental poisonings." So, it is a good thing you have Responsible Family to help you to get educated and prepare yourself and other caregivers, isn't it?!
