That's true. We tend to rely on these places to adhere to safety standards, so it's quite unsettling when such accidents happen in public spaces. It makes you wonder sometimes!
You're right; it's also a wake-up call for all of us to remain vigilant and notice our surroundings, not just for ourselves but also for the people around us!
That's true - we sometimes get desensitised to dangers because thankfully, nothing bad has happened yet. But we should realise that it could have been anyone of us and the risks are real. Glad you agreed!
indeed , being vigilant and observant is always good. better to be safe than sorry. hope everyone got a scare free evening after this incident though!
It is lucky that the girls are OK. A close call like that really underscores the importance of diligent building maintenance.
It's quite the mystery, this whole situation. Something like this doesn't happen often, but when it does, it catches everyone off guard.
Yes, some serious injuries might have resulted from the fall. It would have been awful.
It's a good thing that the danger was averted this time. It will be useful for building maintenance staff to keep an eye out on these glass panels though, to prevent any future incidents.
Yeah, it's pretty uncommon, which probably explains the lack of preparedness and the shock factor. Quite a freak accident, if I say so myself. Freaky stuff like this seems to always happen when you least expect it.
I can understand the trauma resulting from such a frightening event, especially for the little girls involved. It's good that they're okay, given the scare of the situation.
Traumatic indeed. As a parent, it scares me that such incidents can happen so suddenly and unexpectedly. It's every mother's worst fear to see their child in danger, be it from strangers or in this case, falling glass.
You're lucky your child has avoided such a scary situation. I agree that it is every parent's worst nightmare, and it's every parent's responsibility to keep their children as safe as possible too. We can never be too careful!
That's a relief, at least your child is safe.
I think most mothers would react instinctively and duck, hopefully keeping their children safe too. It's always money well spent on teaching our kids to be aware of their surroundings and dangers, even ones like these which seem straight out of nowhere.
Yup, I'd do the same too! There's no time to waste during situations like these -- react first, ask questions later. Luckily for us parents, there are many safety initiatives and talks we can send our kids to, to keep them aware and alert. It's a good habit to constantly remind ourselves and our kids to be vigilant. You never know what could be falling from the skies, literally!
The incident serves as a stark reminder of the potential dangers in our midst. We should indeed be vigilant and mindful, especially in heavily urbanised areas.
I'm glad the girls are okay. The strong winds and heavy rain certainly make for risky conditions indeed.
