When the grandchildren were young they were invariably attached to one adult or another by an expanding strap with a loop both ends, I think you can still get them, little ones are so unpredictable, nothing on a mobile phone can be more important thanyour child's safety. |

We slowed down to go around a corner only a couple of days ago, mum, pushchair and two little school age children, one holding the pram and the other little mr johnny come lately was strolling along behind with his woolly hat on and one earflap was on the front of his face. The mother did look around at us and then he had to stop and look at us from either side of his woolly earflap, it took me all my time not to laugh. |

Another danger is the way mothers have children on the outside where if a car mounts the pavement the little body is most vulnerable. I always made sure I was closest to the road when walking with children. |

Aren't these parents who are not interested in their children making them far more easily available to those who might have a particular interest in them? |

... And I still see drivers with mobiles to their ears. I thought it had been made illegal. |

Yesterday I drove passed a young mum with a little one in a pushchair. She was waiting to cross the road, on a mobile with only the back two wheels on the pavement and the front a little in the air above the road. I dread to think what could have happened had a car was being driven close to the curb :-| :-| :-| |

Oh yes Von, on Wednesday we were in the outside lane of a local dual carriageway which crosses a roundabout with four lanes in one place, on our left was a van driver drinking coffee,in front of him was another van driver reading whatever he had spread across the steering wheel. |

That sees danger here? Twice today passed young mums, on mobile, texting while her toddler (2 or 3 years old), wanders along behind her. In both cases the child could have been distracted and run into the road. |
