At what age did you get fire ladders for your kids rooms?

True. You should buy the smoke detectors that use mom’s voice to say the kid’s name and to wake up there is a fire.

Depends on the house. Mine is quite elevated - second story is more like a third story for most homes. I would need the ladder just to get to a height that a jump could survive.

Never heard of this as a thing.

So at no age did I do this.
