Electric shock and lightning in children

The opportunity for children to come into contact with electricity in daily life increases with the development of society. Most of the reasons for electric shock are touching the electrical appliances with their hands, power jacks or grasping the broken ends of the wires. Occasionally, they are struck by lightning when they are sheltering from trees under rain. In severe cases, it can cause severe local and systemic injuries, and even cripple and death the child.
