So what do you consider that to be? If my child is getting ready to run into the street, you can bet your ass, I'm gonna grab whatever I can get my hands on to keep them out of the street. They will then get a swat, and sat down and explained to why they can't run into the street. I'm not just going to stand there and "hope" a car isn't driving by as my kid runs into the street. I'm going to stop them before they get there.
