I had a customer once that explained how his grandson died. He was playing on a bed and when he jumped off, his hoodie got caught on the post, choking him, and no one could hear the noise he made. The numerous ways kids can accidentally kill themselves or others in otherwise innocuous ways is terrifying, but we can't wrap them in bubblewrap. My son is 12, and in that entire 12 years, I've been paranoid he'll fall off the bed and choke himself.
