Degrees of Safety
Many parents believe since their first child didn't get hurt, their other children won't either. However, as families change, different safety needs arise.
For example, an older child may leave small toys where younger siblings can find them.

- Is turning your hot water heater below 120 degrees Fahrenheit the safest way to avoid scalding?
- What's the safest ways to lock cabinets?
- Which "baby gates" are hazardous?
- How can electrical outlets be made safe? (Those popular plastic push-in outlet caps are the #3 cause of infant choking!)
