PROTECTING OUR CHILDREN REALLY!

Posted October 10, 2008 at 1:43AM in Getting Green by greenqueen | Back 

 

Hello parents,



I am new to this site and wanted to take the opportunity to introduce myself. I am the parent of 3. 1 child at home and a homeschooler. 4 years ago my daughter was diagnosed with  enlarged sinuses which  cases her to have labored breathing at night and rattling in her chest and a chronic cough. She had puffy eyes and she had skin rashes on her back. The doctor told me to give her an allergy pill to relieve her suffering. She was only 3 yrs old and I did not want to give her that medication at her age.  A neighbor shared with me some of the toxic effects my household cleaning and personal care products had on people so I switched stores and start shopping at an Eco friendly store with family friendly products. I was amazed after 1 week of using the Toxic free laundry detergent my daughters breathing problems went away and her skin rash was gone. Amazing!  that was an eye opener for me and I became an advocate of Safer for your home and family products and a voice to let parents know to be aware of the things you buy and put on your skin and you babies.  Please note the link below it is real. You must safeguard your family.  



I hope this is helpful. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions

  I love my job, it gives me a break from my kids!

Great, great comments. Thank you very much. People forget about their home's indoor air quality which as you pointed out can be very toxic for children. I clean all my surfaces with vinegar, soap or baking soda. And if the kids want to pitch in, they can without any harm to them.

Yes good reminders. Thank you for sharing your experience. Laundry liquids are a big one too if your little ones are sensitive to chemicals. Mattresses are BIG one. Here in the US we sell toxic mattresses and to think how much time we spend sleeping on them.
