Every baby comes into the world full of curiosity, eager to explore the unknown of the world.

When the baby is still small, can not walk, and can only rely on a pair of eyes dripping constantly turn to observe the world, mothers, and fathers may not feel. But when the baby stumbles to learn to walk, after expanding the scope of exploration, moms and dads can feel the baby's curiosity about the world, this touch that touches a touch, a word will be stuffed into the mouth ......

The fact is that you can only try to put things to the "high" in case your baby accidentally touches something dangerous. After all, babies do not have any sense of security, and many of us adults are nothing, to the hands of the baby, it may become a deadly weapon.

Some time ago, on the Internet saw such news, a three- or four-year-old child, mistakenly 502 glued eye drops into the eyes, but also the father found to deal with timely, otherwise the consequences are unimaginable.

It turns out that the child's father often uses his eyes too much because of his work, so the family will always have a bottle of eye drops. Once the child saw his father dropping eye drops again asked his father what this was for, and his father told him that these were eye drops, something that could relieve eye fatigue and make the eyes comfortable.

This day, because the child's toy is broken, the father bought 502 glue back to stick, after repairing the toy just for the meal, the father will casually put 502 on the table and went to the kitchen to cook. And the child saw a bottle of eye drops on the table with the father's usual thing, they curiously brought it left and right, and even follow the father's eye drops look like the glue to the eyes, wanting to make the eyes also "comfortable" a little.

With a scream, the father rushed out of the kitchen and saw the glue still in the child's hand, so he understood everything. The child's eyes around the glue were rinsed with water, and find saline to the child to rinse the eyes, and then quickly sent the child to the hospital.

After the doctor's professional treatment, the child's eyes have been no big deal, after understanding the child's father's first treatment, the doctor praised: "Thanks to the father to deal with the correct and timely, which did not lead to a greater evil."

We all know that 502 glue adhesive is very large, and contains a large number of chemicals, when these substances touch the eyes, it is easy to cause eye corneal burns and other problems, then, in case of inadvertent 502 and other glue drops into the eyes, how to deal with it?

1. Rinse with water

In life, if you accidentally put 502 and other glue drops into the eyes, the first thing to do is to immediately rinse the eyes with a large amount of water, which can reduce the adhesive force of the glue, and pay attention to the process of rinsing the best to last about 30 minutes. Families with conditions can also use a saline rinse.

2, promptly send to the doctor

After a certain treatment with water or saline in time, it does not mean that the eyes are safe, then the second thing to do is to immediately go to the hospital to find a professional doctor for examination and treatment, do not be careless.

It should be reminded that after 502 glue enters the eyes, the discomfort will make the child subconsciously want to rub his eyes with his hands, which is not allowed, this is likely to make the glue into the eyes to expand the scope and may cause more damage.

In fact, in everyday life, many things in our homes are dangerous for children, parents should pay attention to these items put away in places out of reach of children, or train more children's safety awareness, so that children can take the initiative to avoid risks, then, how specifically can do it?

1, patiently explain the safety of common sense

Many parents are aware of the importance of safety, but most of them stay on the lecture, always saying to the child that this is not allowed to do, that is too dangerous, but lazy to make a further explanation of these restrictions.

The child does not recognize the danger of doing so, although temporarily stops doing it, it only because of the parents' "lust", once the parents are not in or an inattentive, out of curiosity, will often repeat the dangerous action just stopped.

Therefore, if parents the child propose some safety norms, and can be timely and patient to make clear the reasons why they can not do so, the situation may be much better.

2, within control, let the child try

As the saying goes, sometimes we parents repeatedly emphasize a thing with the child ten times, not as effective as the child's physical experience once.

For example, we parents always say that boiling water is very hot, and to let it cool before drinking, otherwise, it will be scalded. But the child did not feel the "hot", he will never be able to appreciate how painful it is to be scalded by boiling water.

Therefore, in a controlled range, we parents can still let their children try to feel the stabbing, hot, and other painful taste, so he left an unforgettable impression than we rambled all day long good.

3、Cultivate children's self-reliance

Parents are too protective of their children and taking care of everything in advance is not good for children, it is easy to make them dependent.

For things that happen to the child, parents can give the child some independent processing space, and not rush to intervene, so that he has to think about solving the problem to find a way.

After all, we parents can not always be around the child, encounter difficulties, and always have to find our way to safely solve the problem. What we parents have to do is when the child thought of several solutions, the child together to determine the best way to play a guiding role.

In this way, over time, the child's independence and autonomy will slowly improve, if later encounter difficulties, that is, parents are not around, the child can also try to safely solve their own.
