All these are potentially dangerous for a child, and should be kept at an unattainable height for the child or under secure lock - kettles, medicines, household chemicals. For example, products for sewage congestion should not be in a house where there is a small child, or they should be kept at an unattainable place for him, told NEWS.am Medicine the pediatrician from medical center «Surb Astvacamayr» Arusyak Khachatryan, commenting on the recent cases of drug poisoning among children.  As she mentioned, it's an elementary safety, but people often forget about it.

Particularly, according to the doctor, kettles and their cords must be so high that the child could not reach them. If lunch is cooked on gas, it must be on the back burner.

«The same concerns drugs - they should be on the top shelf, where the child cannot get even climbing on a chair or other piece of furniture. Or they should be locked up – there are special doors that do not open, lockable special casket. Of course, even in this case it is preferable to keep the drugs at higher places, because you can forget to lock the box, "- she said, adding that the drugs in a conspicuous place in any case should not be, because children are curious, inquisitive, they imitate adults who drink in front of them.

«What is not seen will not deceive the child, and what you see - will attract attention - this is the principle», she added.

According to the doctor, there are many cases of poisoning in children with household chemicals that people usually keep in the bathroom on the lower shelf; these funds today have colorful packaging, and children take to play, even to taste the products. Pediatrician reminded that there are also foods that should be kept away from children - alcohol, vinegar, because children may accidentally drink them.
