Perhaps some lessons on how frustrating travel can be for disabled people and some training re diffusing situations rather than escalating them

With their bright colours and squishy feel, water beads are especially appealing to young children.
But they can be really dangerous if swallowed.

That’s why we’re urging you to keep them away from small children.

No cases of cervical cancer have been reported in those who have received the HPV vaccine at school in my home country Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

None

Not one !

It's an amazing anti cancer vaccine

HHS Secretary RFK Jr is against the vaccine.

When you’re gardening this Spring, please remember that accidental poisoning can happen in an instant, even if you’re there but have been distracted momentarily.

So, keep garden chemicals out of reach of young children.

Many diseases, including polio, measles and tuberculosis, have largely receded because of vaccinations. This is precious but fragile progress. If kids don’t get vaccinated, these and more diseases will resurge.

‼️Adolescence‼️
It seems our actors/media need to grab the headlines with emotive dramas to get much needed attention and focus of the issues faced by our children & young people. However, if it helps, all to the good! But….

Mini eggs are the perfect size to block a small child’s airway and choke them. And, their hard shell can make it difficult to dislodge with standard first aid.

That’s why they aren’t recommended for children under 4.

So please stay safe and choose another treat for little ones.
