Timothy Healey died seven days after accidentally falling through a first floor window in his own home. He was seven years old.  His parents, family and friends were devastated. How could it happen? The fact is it does, too often. Windows are as much a threat to your child as  handguns, electrical outlets or household chemicals. Take it seriously. Open only those windows that are out of reach of children. Teach children not to lean against windows and screens or play near them.  Never place furniture children can climb on next to a window. And if you have to, install guards or safety bars. Timothy's parents weren't aware that the windows in their home could take their child's life. They don't ever want you to forget it.
