Give your child a safe summer

Summer vacation is a precious time that children look forward to for many days to have fun and relax after months of hard studying. However, children who are too busy playing can forget their parents' advice and fall into the danger of losing their safety and health.

Parents keep an eye on your children

Injuries and accidents every summer are a common concern for the whole society, especially the repeated drowning tragedy that multiplies the pain in many families.

The closing bell of the school year had not yet rung when the bad news of young heads dying in the raging waters continued to arrive.

Holidays, weekends, hot weather, groups of children invite each other to go to the beach, wade in streams, swim in ponds, and some of them are swept away by waves, misstep, fall into whirlpools... The holding hands of strangers cannot save them all. So there are children who never return, dyeing their parents' hair white.

Summer is here, a series of entertainment centers, eco-tourism experience areas, sports complexes, swimming pools, beaches... are bustling open. When taking their children out, many parents are still very innocent, carefree in the face of countless health risks, even life-threatening risks surrounding their children.

Summer is coming to students. Parents should keep an eye on their children during play activities to ensure they have a safe summer.

I have seen many parents take their children swimming and let them freely dive into the water, while they sit there calmly playing with their phones. The sea is crowded, the swimming pool is vast, the river is slippery, but they do not care. While children are still having fun, lacking knowledge and losing skills, they cannot stop their steps to deep water, and stop them from playing risky games.

I have witnessed many parents taking their children to public places and leaving them to play and fumble around on their own. Children throw big and small balls around, regardless of who they hit. Children throw huge pieces of logos at strangers. Books on the shelves in bookstores are scattered by children's hasty, naughty hands...

We cannot stay close to our children, hold their hands and guide them as they play, and intervene in every obstacle they encounter, causing them to lose their resistance and lack life skills. However, we absolutely cannot let them be free, play by themselves, and take care of their own safety.

The risk of children getting lost, being bullied, having accidents, etc. can only be prevented if parents pay attention to reminding their children to follow the general rules when playing; stay away from risky, age-inappropriate games. In particular, parents should put down their phones and watch their children from a distance, especially when they go swimming or playing, to minimize the risk of accidents and injuries!

In the summer, children love swimming in pools, rivers, streams... so adults need to observe them regularly when taking children swimming.

Students and the dangers that lurk in the rainy season

In addition, schools and families should regularly teach students how to avoid potential dangers so that students know how to protect themselves during this season.

Traffic accident

This is a big concern when parents themselves are not role models for their children. Many parents take their children without helmets. Sudden rains can also be dangerous when students speed on motorbikes and bicycles. Even parents do not wear helmets. Not to mention, there are parents who take their children through red lights or climb over the median strip to "speed a little"...

In addition, students need to be aware of dangers hovering above their heads, including: hanging electric wires and cables that have the risk of electric leakage. Roads with large trees, lush branches and leaves, especially trees with protruding roots and large branches covering the road, are prone to falling. This is a danger that everyone can face, especially students. Therefore, students should limit going out during thunderstorms to avoid this danger.

Drowning

Heavy rain and strong currents can easily cause falls. If students are not careful, they can easily be swept away by the current, which can be dangerous for students who cannot swim or elementary school students. Roads in many places are degraded, creating dangerous ditches and holes. In addition, manhole covers with broken covers are a lurking danger during the rainy season. Authorities are negligent in checking and replacing new covers, so tragic deaths have occurred from sewers and manholes.

Heat shock, lightning

Heat stroke is very common on hot days and the danger of being struck by lightning during the rainy season is no exception. Danger lurks for students when the weather is too hot and there is heavy rain and strong winds.

To limit dangers to students, adults (schools and families) need to teach students basic skills, care for students with practical actions, and be a true example for students to look up to.
