As parents, we all try to make our homes as safe as possible for our children and we have been lead to believe that placing the pull cords of our window blinds up and out of reach of our children is enough to protect them. Wrong, wrong, wrong.
There are 8 WAYS a child can DIE from corded window treatments!! Please take time to visit this website Parents For Window Blind Safety. Inform yourself and pass this information on to everyone you know — all your family, friends, day cares, preschools…anyone who has a child in their lives! I had no idea there were so many different ways a child could be strangled by cords from window treatments…this is a very sad reality for many families. The danger is not just to infants and toddlers, deaths have occured up to the age of 12! It’s a difficult thing to do, reading the stories on this website, but if others can learn from these people’s experiences a life may be saved!
I encourage you to take immediate action if you have these products in your home!!
