Chris Cantell Discusses Odd News: Teach your kids how to use it
by Barbora Misakova
In these days when lot of various technical acquisitions are available and still more and more people have access to them because of their low prices another question appears. What about children? Lot of mobile phones and other technical devices used even in the households can have very bad influence on men's health and children's even more. Radiation of mobile phones can be very dangerous not only for pregnant women but also for children whose like playing with them very often. Except it, mobile phones can also cause unwilling subjection to phones and other similar devices. Lot of people nowadays let their children to play with cell phones and computers even when they are 2 years old. And even though in most of the cases it is very bad habit, in some special incidents it can be really helpful if your kid knows how to use your mobile phone.
One similar case happened few weeks ago. Only three-year-old Madelyn called emergency when her mother, 24-year-old Jessica Eaves fainted. The whole situation was more complicated because Madelyn's mother is pregnant. Even though this little girl couldn't realize how dangerous it could be for her pregnant mother to faint, she knows anyway there is something wrong. So this 3 years old girl took her mother's cell phone and call the emergency. Do you want to know how? Pretty easily – she remembered one song. Her mother who has a condition which can cause her frequent fainting realized that it can happen to her anytime, and as she wanted to protect herself and also little Madelyn, she taught her a very easy song. The text of this song consists of words “911” and “green”. Little girl knows this song so well, that in the first case when her mother fainted she just took her cell phone, push the buttons 9, 1 and 1 and then push the green button which is on the most cell phones used for calling.
Dispatcher asked Madelyn easy questions and so they found out where she lives. Sometimes it is not so bad, if your kid knows how to use a cell phone. But probably the most important thing is to show him how to use it, not only how to play with it. It can maybe save someone's life.
