Caution! Open windows!

      With the arrival of spring and warming weather, the danger of children being near open windows in apartment buildings increases. The cause of tragedies is often the carelessness of parents who leave their children unattended. Such cases have already been recorded in the Republic of Tatarstan.

      To prevent such accidents, it is recommended not to place furniture items close to windows so that the child cannot climb onto the windowsill. Relying on a mosquito net is reckless and frivolous! It cannot withstand the weight of a child: the net's fastenings break instantly, and the child, unable to react in time, may fall. To avoid accidents, special locks should be installed on windows that will prevent the child from opening them. Adults should stay close to their children while ventilating rooms.

      For adults who are careless about their children, the legislation of the Russian Federation establishes criminal liability. In all cases of investigating the circumstances of children's deaths and injuries, the investigative bodies of the Investigative Committee of Russia determine the causes and conditions that contributed to the incident.
