Show AN OUNCE OF CAUTION Parents of crawling infants and walking toddlers should be reminded that when visiting friends or relatives, rela-tives, their homes may not be childproof (especially if they have no children). I prepare for this by keeping a close eye on my little one and always carry syrup of ipecac and activated charcoal char-coal in my diaper bag should a poisoning emergency occur. If it is an overnight stay, I take along outlet plugs and familiarize myself with the Poison Control Center Cen-ter phone number and the phone number to reach an ambulance. ' Louise K., Harlan, Ky. |
