there have been videos of of pedestrian car accidents in my town. I'm tempted to show my kids so they see the severity of how dangerous crossing, bike riding, roller blading in the street is.
I don't want to traumatize them but I feel like they laugh it off when I tell them how careful they need to be. they don't understand how serious it is.
what do you think?

Maybe a teenager. Definitely not a little kid!

No way, do not show it to your kids. It's traumatic even for an adult to see.

I would show if they are in-fact crossing, bike riding and roller blading dangerously.
