This has probably been said millions of times before but can’t be said enough. I’m not even a parent but thought this would be the best place to get the message across. I was out with friends- a mum and her two kids. Traffic on one side of the road at a standstill so we began to cross but as we paused in the middle to look other way, younger child didn’t realise and ran to the other side. Thankfully the kid was okay as the driver was going slow and stopped in time, we were all just a bit shocked. Things like this can just happen unexpectedly.

Not really unexpected though - fairly predictable.

Depending on age of the child, reins make a lot of sense. If older, then yes, holding their hand, whilst teaching them to stop and look every time they cross a road.
