Guest LadyC Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 i need to scare my grandson. there have been a couple of times in recent months were he has started fires in his home... in boxes, in trashcans. usually when mama is sleeping. fortunately nothing has happened yet. he's here visiting with me, and leaves tonight... but this morning he found a lighter and was melting the fur on his stuffed animal. i am having trouble finding a good, suitable video that can show young children (he's 6) how quickly fireplay can get out of control. can someone help me please? he leaves tonight, and i won't see him again til next summer.

It is a staged living room fire. The living room goes completely up in flames in less than 3 minutes. You might mention to him what would happen if someone was sound asleep on that same sofa... The link also has a general English home fire safety PDF as well on the page. http://www.seattle.gov/fire/pubed/homesafety/homeFireSafety.htm Grandson was in our prayers today.

When my nephews started their apt on fire while mom and dad slept thats the advice they got. Sadly my sis in law didnt follow through with that until they started another fire in another apt. Then they took the boys there and it scared the living daylights out of them. The were about 6 and 8 then and both boys remember that very well. This is something that needs to be addressed now rather than later especially considering his age. shalom, Mizz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
