Perna - I was just wondering if they still made harnesses for kids! It's safer to feed my grandson sitting on the floor.
As for my grandson, I sleep in the living room while I'm there. I'm there Monday through Friday at least, so he'd have to get through me and I'm a very light sleeper. But I will have to google one of those other bars. My daughter lives in a rental, so I'm thinking an alarm might be more rental friendly.
As I heard this story, and reflected on the things my own children did, I too am amazed that there aren't more stories than this. Even older children 5+ cannot understand the consequences of their actions. I just to tell my own kids that I'm not saying no to be mean, and explain why.
Children are very clever creatures. They forced a design change on the cribs in the US because children were getting their fingers smashed (although I personally have never known this to happen) but something as common as a sliding door has survived?
Squaw - I'm somewhat ruling out the spring loaded thing, because I can see my grandson climbing up to use that as a hanging toy and I see more accidents that way.
