Why do Mom and Dad say "Don't play with matches?"
10 reasons, at least, why.
1. The blaze in Agua Dulce injured four people
2. The blaze destroyed at least 63 structures.
3. The blaze destroyed 15 homes
4. The blaze burned more than 38,000 acres.
5. 15,000 people were evacuated because of the Buckweed Fire
6. $7.4 million has been spent to contain the fire.
It was started by a little boy playing with matches.
The little boy has 'fessed up' to the crime.
7. All told 14 people were killed
8. A half million acres were sizzled
9. 2,000 homes have been lost.
10. One of the biggest evacuations in history.
Police shot a man they thought was trying to set a fire...investigators are checking out several reports that some fires were set by arsonists.
Little boys...big boys...playing with matches. Mom & Dad said NOT to.
What other advice do parents give that we should really listen to?
