[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I watched some of the second day of hearings.  These are the takeaways I have: 
(1)[b] Teach your kids to listen to their instincts, Get out and self advocate. [/b]If the water is rising quickly get to higher ground.  There was a DC train (metro?) where there told people not to evacuate with smoke / fire but help did not come in a timely manner.  Person who had been trained to self advocate got himself and other people on his car out of the train/ tunnel safely.  
(2). The value of training for fire, active shooter is important activity. One of the parents started a non-profit and has developed best practices for camps.  Something that many of us did know was needed, especially for sleep away camps. 
(3) 'Look for the helpers.' Remind your kids this, they are not alone.

Other things we can learn from this tragedy? I think I had heard when this first happened that there was funding provided by Biden administration for installing early warning detection for that river, which money was not used and likely returned to the river. So let's learn not cut off our noses to spite our face. We have become so polarized politically that we need to be careful and say is this valuable input? [/quote]

You are talking about EIGHT YEAR OLD GIRLS who were TOLD by adults to stay in their cabins. Your Metro scenario is completely ridiculous as an analogy. [/quote]

Why are you yelling? There were other cabins that self-evacuated. Chloe & Katherine were set up to fail by the Eastlands, and the Eastlands failed them. [/quote]
