The Child Safety Act of 2005
2008-02-21 02:34:00 Important legislation has been introduced which, if passed, would go a long way toward protecting our nation's children from sexual predators.

James Sensenbrenner Jr., the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, on July 26th as a response to several high profile crimes involving children. Each crime committed involved the kidnapping, sexual exploitation, and murder of the victims by predators including these three cases:David Onstott, 36, has been charged with first-degree murder of 13 year old Sarah Lunde.

Child Safety LATCH System
2008-02-14 05:07:00 Car rides need not be a frightening experience for children. The child safety LATCH system reduces the risks of injury caused by car accidents. This system has been found out to eradicate about 50% of the improper installation associated with child safety car seats.It is ironic to know that while child safety car seats are aimed at keeping the child safe while riding in a vehicle, a good 80% of them are installed incorrectly. This totally defeats the purpose of this safety equipment. One of the main reasons for this is the incompatibility of some vehicles to the child safety seats. This difficulty of setting up the child safety car seat has paved the way for the more effective child safety LATCH system. The Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) system is a much easier way of installing the child safety seats in the vehicle because it eliminates the use of the vehicle’s seat belt system. The rise in the properly installed child safety car seats will lessen the number of ca...
