Why Aren't Car Crashes Registering on The Mom Blog Circuit?

April 03, 2014 in Uncategorized

Every day I hear about what topic is trending in the mom world. Image via Red Tri

Breast feeding vs. formula, helicopter parenting, etc. yet I still do not hear about the fact that car crashes are one of the leading cause of death to kids.

Yes, I hear about texting but mostly in regards to teens texting and driving.

Dudes.

Have you looked at the line of moms and dads on their phones in the carpool lane at school? WTF are we showing our kids? We are showing them that moms and dads are on their phones while behind the wheel. And mind you, right at a time when little people we love are close by, walking.

Most car crashes are avoidable, you can choose not to tailgate, excessively speed or use your phone. We need to make better choices. We need the mentality to switch. We aren't a fatalistic country. Well, some of us are but if you get cancer most of your aren't going to pray and count on your blessings. You go to the freaking doctor.

April is National Distracted Driver Awareness month.

Let's get this topic trending moms.
