Most Parents Don’t Know They’re Teaching Their Kids the Wrong Way to Cross the Street — James Tomaszewski on Outdoor Safety Done Right

Crossing the street seems like the simplest thing in the world. Most of us learned how to do it before we started school. But James Tomaszewski has spent years working on children’s safety education, and what he has found is that many of the habits adults model and pass on to kids around outdoor safety — including something as basic as crossing the street — contain mistakes that put children at real risk. He joins Stacey Chillemi to walk through the essential techniques for street crossing and outdoor safety that every parent and caregiver should know, why what feels instinctive is not always what is actually safe, and how small adjustments in the way you teach and model safety behaviors can make a meaningful difference in how well your children protect themselves when you are not there to guide them. What he shares about the specific errors most people make without realizing it, and the practical habits that replace them, will give you something concrete and immediately useful whether you are a parent, a grandparent, or anyone responsible for a child’s safety outdoors. You learned how to do this years ago. This episode asks whether what you learned was actually right.
