When there are young children at home, safety is essential to prevent accidents. Safety barriers are one of the items most used by parents to place on stairs or fence a space for children.
But for Michaela, a two-year-old girl, whom they have dubbed "little Houdini," there are no barriers that are worth it. Have an incredible ability to open a safety barrier installed by their parents. But the most curious thing is the tool you use to do it: A toy necklace!
Apparently it is a very determined and anxious girl of freedom. He does not like to remain in closed places at all and since childhood he shows escapist ways. Her parents say that the girl also left her crib climbing on a dresser.
One Saturday, while the mother was scrubbing the floors, she left the girl locked up to avoid slipping, but managed to get out. He wanted to find out how the girl had made it, so he locked it back and hid to record it with his cell phone. That was how he discovered his novel technique.
Preschoolers are the most vulnerable to accidents at home, with falls and rainfall being one of the most frequent causes of injury. Home security measures are essential, but when the protection measures themselves become a danger in themselves or lose effectiveness, we must change our strategy to guarantee the greatest safety of our children.
It is also true that sometimes barriers are used more for the comfort of the parents than for the safety of the children. In any case, Michaela's parents, watching the girl's ability, they will have to be more creative to maintain security at home.
