Michael Petruccelli asks; What can you do to prepare your family in the event of a home fire? (part 3)

Michael Petruccelli says;  Conduct a family meeting. Clearly communicate, verbally and with the use of drawings, the importance of knowing and understanding the procedures to be followed in the event of a fire. Plan a visit to a fire station and let younger members of the household view a firefighter in all his/her gear. Young children are often frightened when encountering a firefighter for the first time.
