Iingxoxo ezibalulekileyo zokuba nabantwana bezilwanyana malunga nokukhusela umpu
Abazali bathetha nabanabantwana malunga neengxaki ezahlukeneyo zempilo kunye nokhuseleko lomntwana, kodwa ngokuqhelekileyo, ukukhuseleka kompu akuyona inxalenye ycoko.
Umba wokuba ngaba kungekho izibhamu ekhaya apho abantwana behlala okanye ba tyelele kubaluleke kakhulu, kwaye uphando olwenziwa ngoSeptemba 2016 lwabazali ngabaphandi e-Washington University School of Medicine lubonisa ukuba yinkinga esebenzayo kwiintsapho ezininzi .
Abaphandi bavakalisa abazali abangama-1,246 kwiindawo zokulinda abantwana baseMissouri nase-Illinois ukuba bafumane ukuba baya kuvuma ukuxoxa ngokukhusela kompu kunye noogqirha babo. Bafumanisa ukuba malunga nesiqingatha sabantwana kwiintsapho ezihlolisisiwe babika njengokuba bechitha ixesha emakhaya abaphethe izibhamu, kwaye ke bambalwa kakhulu kuba bazali bathetha nabantwana babo malunga nokukhusela umpu.
Ezinye iziphumo eziphambili ezivela kwisifundo:
- Abaninzi abangama-36 ekhulwini kwabazali abahlolisisiweyo babika ukuba baneemipuphu kumakhaya abantwana, kwaye aba-2/3 babazali bathi babephethe isibhamu esinye.
- Kulaba bazali abathi akukho mlilo emakhaya abo, iipesenti ezili-14 zithi abantwana babo bavakashela rhoqo amakhaya kunye nabahlobo ababenemipu.
- Ngaphantsi kwama-13 ekhulwini abazali bathi bacela abazali bomntwana wabo ngemipu.
- Amaphesenti angaphezu kwe-20 yabazali ababengumnikazi weempundu bathi bagcina izibhamu kunye neebhamu kwindawo enye, kwaye i-25 ekhulwini yathi ubuncinane imithwalo yemoto yayithwala. Kule qela, iipesenti ezili-14 zathi izibhamu zafikeleleka kubantwana.
- Abangama-18 ekhulwini abanikazi beebhamu babethi baphethe izibhamu kwiipokethi zabo, emasakeni, kwi-holsters, okanye ngaphakathi kweemoto zabo xa beshiya amakhaya abo.
- Amaphesenti angama-75 abo bonke abazali (abanikazi bamabundu kunye nabanye) bathetha ukuba bacinga ukuba abantwana bamele bacebise abazali malunga nokugcinwa kwezinto ezikhuselekileyo.
- Iipesenti ezingama-22 zabanikazi beebhamu basithi bangazihoxisa iingcebiso zokungabikho izibhamu ngaphakathi kwindlu kunye neepesenti ezi-14 zathi babeya kukhutshwa yiloluleko.
- Kuphela i-12.8 pesenti yabo bonke abazali bathi banokuxoxa ngeebhamu kunye nomntwana wezingane zabo.
Isizathu sokuba Abazali Bamele Bakhulume Ngokukhusela I-Gun
Ukufa okuhlobene nomlilo kuqikelelwa ukuba yenye yezona zimbangela eziphezulu zokufa phakathi kwabantwana, ngokwezibalo ezichazwe yi-AAP (i-American Academy of Pediatrics). Kwaye ngamaziko e-US for Control and Prevention prevention, abantwana abangama-2,465 nabantwana abaselula abangaphantsi kweminyaka engama-20 bafa ngenxa yeziganeko ezinxulumene nezixhobo; 15,091 baphathwe ngamagumbi aphuthumayo, kwaye ama-6,213 ayebhedlele ngo-2013.
Nangona la manani, abonisa ingozi ecacileyo neyokhoyo kubantwana, abazali abakhulumi nomntwana wezingane zabo malunga nokukhusela umpu. Kwiimeko ezininzi, oogqirha banomdla wokuhlukanisa okanye ukulahlekelwa izigulane ezinokuziva ngathi zigxekwa okanye zigwetywe; ngamanye amaxesha, banokungaqiniseki malunga nokuba bakuphi kwaye abavunyelwe ngokomthetho ukuba bathethe ngezibhamu kunye nezingane. Kodwa njengamazinga okulimala nokubonisa ukufa, kubalulekile ukuba nale ngxoxo.
Abaphandi bovavanyo lwe-University University yaseWashington bacacisa ukuba enye indlela yokuvula ubuncinci kwimiba yokunciphisa ukulimala kunye nokufa kwabantwana kungaba yinkwenkwezi yokuthetha nabazali malunga nendlela yokugcina imipu ngokukhuselekileyo, ngaphandle kokubabuza ngokucacileyo malunga ubunini beebhamu.
Yintoni Abazali Abafanele Baxoxe Ngomntwana Oonyana Bantwana
I-American Academy ye-Pediatrics (AAP) ithi indlela efanelekileyo yokunqanda ukulimala kompu okanye ukufa kubantwana kukungabi naso isibhamu ekhaya. Kulabo basoloko begcina izibhamu ekhaya, i-AAP icebisa ukuba kugcinwe izibhamu kunye nokuvalelwa kunye neenqwelo zivaliwe ngokukhuselekileyo kwindawo eyahlukileyo. Ukongeza, bacebisa abazali ukuba baqinisekise ukuba izitshixo zifihliwe.
Kubazali bobabini abagcina izibhamu ekhaya kunye nabantwana babo abanokuthi bavelele kwizibhamu kwindawo abaya kuyo, kubalulekile ukuba nencoko malunga nokugcinwa okukhuselekileyo kunye nezinye izilwanyana kunye nezokuthintela ukufa.
Nazi ezinye iingongoma zokugcina engqondweni xa uxoxa ngokukhusela umpu kunye noogqirha:
Kwabazali abangenazo izibhamu emakhaya abo kufuneka bafunde ngokukhusela umpu. Ingozi leyo igcinwe njani kwindlu yomhlobo xa umntwana wakho ehamba ngosuku lokudlala ? Abazali kunye nootatomkhulu bangaba nesibhamu ngokukhuselekileyo bevalelwe ngaphandle, kodwa kwenzekani xa umntwana eya endlwini yomhlobo ukuba adlale kwaye akunjalo? Ukuba nencoko nodokotela wezingane kunokuba isikhumbuzo esibalulekileyo kubazali ukuba kubalulekile ukubuza imibuzo malunga nemibhobho yokugcina indawo apho umntwana edlala khona okanye atyelele.
Khangela ngale ndlela: Abazali bayakhathazeka malunga nokuba umntwana wabo uya kuthungelwa kwi-car seat xa umntwana wabo ekhwela emotweni yomnye umntu, kodwa abanokucinga ukubuza malunga nokuba kukho izibhamu ekhaya kwaye zi khu
Kuthetha ukuthini ukugcinwa okukhuselekileyo? Ukuba nesibhamu esithwele, okanye isibhamu ngeibhola ezikufutshane nayo, kwikhabhinethi evaliweyo ayithethi kakhulu ukuba umntwana uyazi apho ikhonkco leyo igcinwa khona. Ukuhamba kwi-intanethi ukufumana iingcebiso kwiindawo zokugcina izixhobo ezikhuselekileyo kunokunokuba yingxaki: Ngokutsho kwe-AAP, uphando lubone ukuba kuphela iipesenti ezi-2 zewebhusayithi ezicwaninga ngokuqhelekileyo ezithetha ngokugcinwa komlilo zibonelela ngokuchanekileyo nolwazi olupheleleyo malunga nendlela yokugcina abantwana bekhuselekileyo emakhaya izibhamu. Ukuthetha nodokotela wezingane malunga nokugcinwa kompu ngokukhuselekileyo kunokunika abazali ulwazi olubalulekileyo.
Ukuthetha nje nomntwana ngesibhamu sokukhusela akwanele. Njengoko uphando lubonise nje ukuthetha nabantwana malunga neengozi zokuthetha nabantu abangaziwayo okanye ukukhusela abantwana abachasayo akuqinisekisi ukuba abantwana abayi kulandela umntu onobuchule bokuphatha abantwana, ukuthetha nezingane ngokukhuseleka kompu akuthi ukulimala okanye ukufa akuyi kwenzeka.
Abantwana banomdla, kwaye kaninzi baqonda ingozi yento ethile, nokuba babonakala beyiqonda. Kwaye nokuba umntwana wakho uqaphele, umhlobo wakhe angeke abe khona kwaye unokufumana isibhamu esithwele kufuphi nomntwana wakho. Thetha kumntwana wezingane ukuba ufumane iingcebiso ezibalulekileyo zokukhusela ukukhusela intlekele.
