Can Children Act In An Emergency?

We often think children are unable to handle tough situations...but is that really accurate? Often times, children are much smarter, observant and stronger than adults give them credit for. In fact, time and again, children have proven how strong they can be when faced with difficult circumstances. So why not teach our children to do basic first aid and CPR?   If nothing else, it  gives the child the confidence to handle and emergency situation and be able to act upon it, rather than panic in the face of it....but It could give them the skill to bandage a little siblings cut, or teach them to call 911, or be able to help someone who is choking or maybe as is the case in the attached article, give them the ability to help save a life.
