There is a short news video about fire alarms and children that I think all the moms on here would benefit from watching, if I email you the link would you be able to post it?

thanks,
Kelly

I found a link to the video, since I would have had to upload it somewhere to see it.

A Cause for Alarm

Click on the "video" link, at the top of the page, to view the video.

That's pretty scary that smoke alarms really don't wake kids up!

thanks dawn, hope you didn't have too much trouble finding the link, I just thought there would be moms that would like to see it! That is scary though, when my ds was about six we lived in 29 Palms, Ca and we had an earthquake, (one of a few while we lived there) no damage for us, but my dh had to go in to get him out of his bed which was bouncing up and down on the floor and he was sound asleep! It's amazing what they will sleep through!

I can't imagine sleeping through an earthquake! Of course, I'm the one who wakes up for everything, though. If the kids had depended on dad to wake up, when they had croup, I don't think it would have happened. Although, I did work nights when they were little, it seemed the bad nights happened when I was home. Barking coughs could wake me up in an instant.
