Would you allow your small kids to to this?  | |  My father in-law treated the entire family to a weekend at the beach. On our way home, i and my two small boys have to ride with my brother in-law because my husband had to pick up the car from his sister's house. Inside the car, my two year old and his cousin of the same age were playing, jumping, fighting (no car seat, no seatbelts.) then my nephew jumped over the baggage compartment of the car. I was sitting at the back seat with the boys but since we were running, it was difficult for me to handle the two boys since im holding my one year old in my arm. My brother in-laws wife told me to let them play and just leave them alone. I felt so helpless because my son was also already in the compartment. The entire ride was so stressful that i had to strain my arm holding my son's hand while the other arm is holding my one year old. My husband told me later on that it is normal in his country to let the children play in the car. Too many times i saw small children sticking their heads out the window of a running car. I wonder how would you feel if your kids to this? And How would you react if people tell you to leave them alone and let them "play"? I heard comments that i am so overprotective of my small boys. I don't know...

 pinkytabor (407) | 1 year ago | We have just actually moved in this country six months ago and am quite shocked at the statistics of accidents mentioned by my nurse friend here. 60 percent are children age 2-9. Just a few weeks after we moved here, one of my husband's nephew, a 3 year old boy, fell of the stairs. It was bloody, but thank God he did not break his nose and he's alright. I do not allow my son to run up and down the stairs with his cousins. I don't care what the other mothers say. There is even no law in this country to put on seat belts or car seat, whatever. I am both amused and upset. | |

| | 2.  LisaHW (1510) | 1 year ago |  When my kids were little there were always people who didn't (in my opinion) bother to watch their children well enough, who were more than ready to call me "over-protective". I had a neighbor who had a bunch of kids and didn't particularly watch any of them. She thought I was over-protective. I thought she did a better job of having a bunch kids than she did taking care of them once they were born. One day when my four-year-old was playing at their house the mother ended up carrying my child home with her head split open.
What someone else does with their kids is their business, but I wouldn't listen to anyone who told me to do things their way. Let them think what they want.
