There is a recent piece of news that is very scary: a boy accidentally swallowed his grandmother’s anti-diabetic medicine and fell into a coma. The whole family was so anxious that they rushed to the hospital with their children in their arms. He had to be transferred to a major hospital on the way, so he called the police for help. The police raised the alarm and started an emergency relay rescue operation. After a race against time to rescue, the boy was finally out of danger. The doctor said that thanks to the timely delivery, otherwise the consequences would have been disastrous. This is truly a thrilling relay. This child is lucky, but there are many children who cannot escape bad luck. In June 2017, a one-and-a-half-year-old girl in Shaanxi accidentally swallowed her grandfather\’s medicine for heart disease and was in critical condition. In January 2016, the couple went to work, leaving only a 7-year-old child and a one-year-old child at home. The elder brother fed the younger brother jelly and accidentally choked it. Eventually, the younger brother passed away. In October 2015, a 3-year-old girl in Shunde District, Foshan accidentally swallowed her mother\’s motion sickness medicine and died of drug poisoning due to ineffective rescue efforts. In May 2015, a two-year-old girl accidentally took antihypertensive drugs, which eventually led to cardiac arrest. She was not rescued… Similar shocking incidents emerged one after another. The People\’s Daily once published a set of pictures showing children eating a variety of things by mistake: button batteries, toy accessories, nails, glass marbles, coins… Sometimes, the appearance of snacks such as candies and biscuits is too similar to the dangerous items in life. Similar, but young children have no ability to distinguish, will they taste it out of curiosity? My daughter once bought \”pearl candy\”, \”marble candy\” and \”bullet candy\”. I asked her: \”After eating this kind of candy, will you swallow real pearls and toy gun marbles when you see them?\” She is 7 years old and said it is absolutely impossible. But what about younger children? When they see similar items, do they put them directly in their mouths? Toys are like snacks, and snacks are made like toys. No wonder many children accidentally mistake toys for snacks… Children eating things by mistake not only frightens everyone, but also sounds a warning to parents: they must take good care of their children. Don\’t let those \”killers\” threaten your children\’s lives. In addition to accidentally ingesting drugs, many children also end up being sent to the emergency room because their bones got stuck after eating fish, chicken, etc. In the movie \”Extreme Rescue\”, when her mother turned around, Doudou himself was eating chicken and the chicken bones got stuck in his throat. The situation was very critical, but in the process of sending him to the hospital, he encountered a series of crises such as traffic jams, collisions, and traffic rush hours. On the way, the child fell into a coma for a time, and the parents were distraught. Later, with the help of traffic radio, enthusiastic citizens and taxi drivers, they finally reached the hospital. After rescue, Doudou finally turned the corner. At that moment, my mother finally broke down and cried. Just recently, a real-life extreme rescue took place in Meishan, Sichuan. A 3-year-old boy had a foreign object stuck in his throat while eating and had difficulty breathing, which was life-threatening. The parents encountered a traffic jam on the way to the hospital. Thanks to the Meishan traffic police who opened the \”life channel\” and rushed to the rescue, the child was escorted to the hospital for treatment in just 10 minutes and was finally out of danger. (Pictures and texts are irrelevant) Many times, if no accident occurs, we would never imagine that danger is so close to us! Abroad, it has happenedSuch an incident: Dad went to work, leaving his 3-year-old son at home with his mother. Mom was busy with housework and forgot to put away the cup of aspirin on the table. As a result, the child accidentally drank the glass of water and died of poisoning. The doctor diagnosed the cause of death as \”Reye\’s syndrome.\” Mom was devastated. Although her father did not blame her, the mother lived in great sorrow and suffered from depression for a time. Losing a beloved child is the most unbearable thing in the world. Although it is impossible for us to supervise our children 24 hours a day, it is the responsibility of every parent to ensure that the environment at home is safe and suitable for children to move around easily. Data from the \”2015 Children\’s Medication Safety Report\” released by Safe Kids Worldwide-China show that poisoning is the number one injury to children that occurs at home. \”Among the drugs mistakenly taken by children, cardiovascular drugs have remained in the top three for three years.\” Every day, many children enter the emergency room because they took the wrong medicine or swallowed foreign objects. More than 80% occur in children under 6 years old, and it is most common in children between 2 and 5 years old. From a developmental psychology perspective, children aged 3-6 are in the exploration stage. They are curious about the outside world and like to explore. Their ability to act is often faster than their ability to think, and they do many things immediately before they have time to think about them. The most obvious thing is that when he sees a new thing, he will touch it first and then think about what it is. In addition, because of their young age, young children\’s thinking ability has a great intuitive action nature, and their cognition of things also relies on the specific image, representation and association of the representation. In other words, they often do not have the ability to distinguish right from wrong and like to imitate. An incident happened to my daughter when she was a child, and it still scares me even now when I think about it. When my daughter was 3 years old, she was sent to live with her grandmother for a few days. At that time, my grandma bought raisins and went home, and my aunt and uncle happened to be at home. My aunt loved to joke with her uncle and insisted on stuffing raisins into his nose, which made the child laugh. As a result, the next day, the little guy stuffed raisins into his nose without supervision. There is a saying that describes children, four or five years old, who are disgusted by cats and dogs. It\’s clearly said that you can\’t touch things randomly, just listen with the left ear and listen with the right ear. I promised not to eat randomly, but the next second, my mouth couldn\’t stop trying to taste it. As a result, many dangers occurred. It is hard for parents to take care of their children, but the most important thing is to \”pay close attention to their children\’s every move and not allow danger to take advantage of\”. One step forward is danger, one step back is safety. Last year, a mother took her four-year-old son to a hot spring. She was only playing with her mobile phone, but her son drowned not far behind her! Click on the video ↓↓↓ While netizens are criticizing this mother, we should also think deeply: If we pay more attention, pay more attention, and do not neglect the supervision of our children, maybe some dangers can really be avoided. To ensure the safety of their children, parents must not only ensure the safety of the environment at home, but also constantly provide safety education to their children: 1. Keep medicines, etc. away from the scope of children’s activities. Experts recommendPlease try not to let your children come into contact with dangerous things. Medicines at home must be placed where children cannot see or reach them, and cannot be placed casually on the table or in cabinets. Specialty medications are best locked up. The outer packaging of the medicine should be kept intact, and the medicine should be explained truthfully to the children when they are curious. Parents cannot lie to their children that medicines are candies. They must understand that medicines are used to treat diseases and must not be eaten if they are not sick. In addition, peanuts, jelly, small toys and other foods or items that are easy to cause accidental eating or choking should be stored to prevent accidental eating by children who are unable to take care of themselves. 2. Teach children not to eat randomly and embed safety education in their hearts. Parents can watch TV with their children and learn about the news. You can also choose some safety picture books when telling stories to your children. For example, the picture book \”Don\’t Eat Indiscriminately\” warns children: Don\’t eat indiscriminately. Shasha is so hungry, but her mother hasn\’t come home yet. So she opened the refrigerator and tasted the expired yogurt, and found that it was very sour and bitter, different from what she usually eats; she almost bit the plastic molded apple on the desk. Finally, she finally discovered that these things should not be eaten randomly. Parents can think about it with their children: Can they eat whatever they want because they are too hungry or find it fun? Try to let the children answer the questions first, and then the parents can guide them. Food safety issues are constantly being strengthened. Gradually, children also understand that they cannot just taste and eat whatever they want. When they don’t understand, they should ask their parents. 3. Try not to leave children alone at home. Young children do not have sufficient cognitive abilities and cannot distinguish right from wrong. Therefore, at home, you should try not to let your children leave your sight. If your child is silent for a long time, you need to pay close attention to his actions. If the baby is very quiet, he is doing this: Even if the walls of the house are torn down, the mother will be angry and angry at most, but there is no need to worry. I\’m just afraid that the child will eat the wrong thing or even take the wrong medicine without him or the adults knowing it. Raising children is a happy and arduous process. If we want to ensure the healthy growth of our children, we should do everything in detail. The ancient \”Zuo Zhuan\” has already taught us that safety awareness should be deeply imprinted in our minds: \”Be prepared for danger when you are in peace, and be prepared and be safe.\” If there is no guarantee of safety, then all the expectations and actions of parents for their children will Efforts are in vain.
