It’s summer, glorious summer, that season when school is out and the lazy days are spent sunning on the beach, cruising the lake, hiking the mountains or taking in a ballgame. But sadly, it’s also the season when accidents and fatalities can mount, particularly among children. Whether it’s on Lake Lanier, the highways, backyards or the back seat of a hot car, this time of year can be dangerous for the youngest and most vulnerable.
