For once I agree with Flyover! Word for word, he's right on. (Well, I guess I wouldn't know about the
three boys and a girl part, since I've only got two boys....) But, seriously, there's just no possible way to predict and/or prevent every way a child can hurt themselves! You do the best you can, and clean up the messes & take 'em to the doc when things go wrong.
We've been fortunant not to have to make the emergency room visit yet with either of them (knock on wood), but we've certainly had our share of scrapes, bumps & MANY bruises!
