And, 2)that Logan also didn't understand the aforementioned information. This concerns me on a couple of levels. 1)That kids don’t understand that “Stop, Drop, and Roll” is for if you are ON FIRE.

When you smell smoke you Get down low and go, go, go. If you catch on fire you Stop, drop, and roll. You can say to him, "You're on fire!" or, "I smell smoke!" and away he goes, demonstrating. Like a border collie. My child is very clear on these distinctions. When you smell smoke you Get down low and go, go, go. If you catch on fire you Stop, drop, and roll.

It's time to train the monkeys to administer our medications and change our adult diapers. I'll be surprised if these ones ever learn to tie their own shoes. @Megano!

It's alarming to think that children were somehow getting the message that the logical thing to do when their clothing is burning is also the thing to do when standing in a burning building. And that now they won't know what to do when their clothes are on fire. (Fire warden in my office -- Represent!) @darklingplain

Do you roll this-a-way? That-a-way? What happens when you roll up to a doorway that's narrower than your height? Do you roll through it somersault-style?
