Better Safe Than Sorry

When our son started to walk and climb up and down the furniture and all, I started clearing coffee and end tables in our family room so he wouldn't get hurt in case he falls. The family room is where he's only allowed to play and it literally became a play area. But as active and curious as my little boy is, he still had an accident falling backward while jumping up and down on a sofa and hit his head at the edge of a table in the formal living room which he was not even allowed to go to. We also quit using our fireplaces because he can be fascinated with the flickering fire and one time he couldn't help himself and opened the fireplace door and almost got into the fire. You can't be too careful with little boys so it's better to be safe than sorry.
