This morning, I dropped my son off at the Amtrak Train Station. ~ Kathy
The train started moving, and I was waving at my son through the window. But from the corner of my eye, I saw a little boy nearby, quickly grabbed my phone, and took this photo.
The train was very long, and in the picture, you can see the back of it. That little boy is standing very close to the train, and his mother (I think) is busy talking to someone behind her.
Anyone who has been around a two-year-old knows how fast they move. One moment they are right beside you, and the next, they’re gone!
Maybe someone on the train was waving at the boy. What if the boy, not knowing the danger, takes a few steps closer to see better?
Here’s an important fact: children are very curious and don’t understand how risky a situation can be. Always watch carefully to know if your child is in danger and act fast.
Let me tell you something—no matter how careful you are, your child will get hurt sometimes while growing up. But it only takes a second of not watching them for something bad to happen.
