Did you know window coverings with cords has been identified as one of the top hidden hazards in the home?

That's because of the strangulation risk from corded window coverings to infants and young children. Injuries may range from fatal, to bruising or scars around the neck, to permanent brain damage.

The Window Covering Safety Council, a group dedicated to educating parents and caregivers about the potential strangulation risks of window blind and shade cords, offers suggestions to avoid this danger in your home.

We asked parents for examples of some of the grossest things that have come from the classroom.
