I have been blessed ka”h with 4 young children,and much as we are so careful, mistakes happen to the best of us and not every situation canshould be judged – in such cases we are so thankful that there is an additiona; shmirah for our children, a malach sent by HaShem – the malach DOES NOT mean we don`t have to watch them ourselves…and every situation of sakanah which does not end in tragedy is as much a chesed as a lesson to be learned!

There are some parents who are by nature more relaxed and others less so and this is clear in their parenting practices…I definitely think there is a level of overprotectivenes which can be damaging in itself…

When I see outright cases of disinterst taking safety for granted or even negligence I shudder.

Unfortunately the news is full of tragedies – no one is immune – one can`t think that could never happen to me….We need to be vigilant and domour utmost hishtadlus to protect our treasured gifts and rely on HaShem for the rest!
