[QUOTE="Bill (w/eoPd), post: 610124, member: 6410"] I ran across this, after asking that question: Over the years, many families have affixed decals known as Tot-Finder® stickers to the window or door of a young child's room to alert firefighters to the presence of that child. The bright red and silver, reflective decals are emblazoned with the words "Tot Finder" and an image of a firefighter carrying a child to safety. But the NFPA doesn't recommend using the stickers, citing three concerns; The decals might direct an intruding child abductor to a sleeping child; and if a child no longer sleeps in the bedroom with the decal - either because he or she has moved to a different room or is older and no longer needs the assistance of the sticker - it could waste valuable time for a firefighter trying to get the most vulnerable family member out of danger. {I only count 2 concerns.} [/QUOTE]
