Swimming pool and beach.
* The pool does not lose sight of your child never, you know that even a momentary distraction for your own child can drown. You must know that three minutes without breathing produce irreparable injury to the brain.
Have your child use the “sleeves” or float should not bring down the guard, as these elements are supportive but are not infallible, and never substitute for adult supervision.
When I grow up and learn to swim well talk of the risks of the sea, how to avoid them and respect that should be the recommendations of responders (color of the flag on the beach, etc …).
Explain that you should never bathe only in case of danger or fainting someone can assist, and should not leap into the water in places where the existing depth unknown, because when it hits the bottom column can be injured and become paraplegic or quadriplegic forever.
College.
* When choosing a kindergarten or school for your child care that meets all safety requirements.
* If your son is old enough to understand you explain that you are going to be college and must take care of himself to not hurting yourself, tell if you have any need your teacher will help you.
Help him to be as self sufficient as possible, because they reach a certain age you will not be with him for long periods, and it will be him with their own resources that will have to deal with situations as they arise. Educate children independence and responsibility is very important for gradual future.
Sports.
* School children under 10 years are injured playing with each other or riding a bike, skateboard or scooter, but above that age usually are injured playing organized sports. As well the children of the same age tend to have different sizes, because each has its own pace, accidents between smaller scale are very common.
* Injuries resulting from sports accidents can be of three types:
* Acute injuries (broken bones, head injuries, etc.).
* Overuse injuries (tennis elbow, swimmer’s shoulder, etc.).
* Repeated injuries (sports activity is restarted before it is completely healed and the injury playing in the same location)
* In general, the older or heavier children have more serious injuries are caused by sports accidents, as it has the same violence as a clash between two children from seven years to between two to 17 years.
* To play a particular sport make sure your child is trained in it, playing with peers of the same age, with adequate equipment and certified (approved helmets for bicycling, etc..) In a field of play good condition and first aid kit stocked and checked regularly. It is very important the presence of at least one monitor adult and responsible, able to provide first aid and CPR practice if necessary. If you follow these recommendations, and recommends to follow your child that will prevent a large number of accidents and prevent potentially serious injuries.
