Where's the urgency here?! Yet another infant murdered

Dianne from Hamilton East

It is absolutely dreadful to think a police officer was opened fire upon; I can only praise her quick actions/reactions.
And now the hunt goes on for these abhorrent people and what a manhunt it is.

It is absolutely dreadful to think a police officer was opened fire upon; I can only praise her quick actions/reactions.
And now the hunt goes on for these abhorrent people and what a manhunt it is.
I just wonder when are we going to have the same urgency, the same level of prevention, the same level of monitoring of families who continue to murder the weakest in our society.
They have no means to defend themselves, they are entirely and absolutely defenceles:_
WHEN WILL ANYONE PUT IN PLACE PREVENTIVE MEASURES TO ensure this does not happen again
WHEN WILL the justice system give these murderers a just sentence, and at least a 5 year program of detailed, intensive intervention to ensure no more of our pepe are murdered

Curtain & Blind Safety for Your Kids Room

Robert Anderson from Curtain Clean Hamilton

As a parent or parent-to-be, your number one focus will be the health and safety of your kids. In fact, it doesn't matter whether they are 18 months or 18 years, we always have their best interests in mind - even if they don't listen anymore!

As a parent or parent-to-be, your number one focus will be the health and safety of your kids. In fact, it doesn't matter whether they are 18 months or 18 years, we always have their best interests in mind - even if they don't listen anymore!

However, the home environment can present many dangers to young children. Take curtains and blinds, for example. Although they look great in a room, there's a risk that kids can hurt themselves if they play around with them.

As such, what are the measures that you can take to ensure that they are safe in your home? Let us explain.

Keep your windows child-safe
Keep babies’ cots well away from windows and ensure that all blind and curtain cords are out of reach. This may mean not placing furniture next to windows – toddlers love climbing!

Child safety devices
You could install a safety device that adds another level of protection. This allows cords to be tightly wound around a cleat and out of reach, alternatively you could opt for electronically operated blinds.

Reduce the hazard
It is important to be aware at all times of child safety around the home. An extra safety measure is the installation of a safety device that either removes the cord loop or limits access to cords. A tension device (either a chain tensioner or cleat) can be anchored to the wall or floor so that young children cannot play with cords or put them around their neck.

Selecting the right curtain fabric type
There is no doubt that kids love to pull and tug on items around your home. While you can tell them off as many times as you like, it might be a good idea to invest in stronger fabric type for curtains in a kid's bedroom.
For example, sheers and voiles - while they look great in a baby's nursery, these fabrics are too lightweight and prone to damage especially when your youngest becomes mobile and wants to practice their climbing skills! In a kid's bedroom, you'll want a strong fabric that can take the odd pull and is also easy to clean should they get dirty.

If you need help, give us a call on 0800 579 0501 and we can offer helpful advice. We can also provide safety devices to keep your blind cords out of reach.

I loved talking to Courtney Mason about how she and her husband ben bought their first home. It really offers a lot of hope for folks who might be looking at the property market and wondering what on earth is happening out there these days.
Courtney and Ben were tenacious and bold, and now they're living happily in their Hawke's Bay home.
Have a read and see how they did it, and while you're at it have a listen to our third episode of First Rung, the podcast for first home buyers for a little more inspiration.
