Many people are negligent when they back their vehicles up in busy areas. For example, if you go to a shopping center or mall.  When leaving the parking lot, an individual may back up without properly looking behind the vehicle to ensure that it is clear.

Many times people are looking for other cars but fail to consider the possibility of a young child standing behind the vehicle.  Some young children may not be noticed because of their height when backing out.  Because of this,  it is extremely important to verify that the back of a vehicle is all clear when reversing.  Many child injuries are caused by individuals backing into the child without knowing.

Many people move into homes or purchase a home where a pet door or "doggie door" is installed.  The idea is that pets are able to move in and outside of the house.  Although it may seem like a good idea to have for animal lovers, if you have a child in the house, it may be a bad idea.

Pet doors have been linked to numerous incidents where a child was either hurt or killed because of the door.  Although a full size adult would be unable to get in or out of a pet door, their size makes them perfect for children.  It has been reported in many cases that a child will go through the door and then be exposed to the dangers outside a house.  Cases of a child crawling through a pet door and drowning in the family pool have been reported.  As well as cases where a child crawls through the door and out onto the street into traffic.  

If you have a child,  do not risk having a pet door in your house.
