	Choking and Kids: Prevention Is the Key
		While most parents and caregivers can quickly name the usual non-food causes of choking in children (marbles and latex balloons, for example), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that the most common cause of nonfatal choking incidents is food.
		A child whose airway becomes obstructed with a piece of food often isn’t able to cry or call out for help, so keep your child in sight the entire time that he or she is eating.
		And frankly, considering that many choking victims are no longer “babies,” the task should really be called “childproofing.” Myriad items around the home pose a choking risk to children, and it takes a keen eye and a quick hand to remove those items from a child’s surroundings before a problem occurs.

		When I was three, and saw every other kid in the room with a balloon, and some hack handed me a stupid floating toy, I'd throw it back in their face and aim for the eyes.
		Before knowing the actual hazards of choking that balloons present, I would have been one of those parents who figured she was a responsible parent and would be sure nothing would happen to her kid - now that I know the facts, I won't let my two year old have a balloon.
		You must be aware that somewhere sometime, a small child was given a balloon by a balloon artist and put the balloon in their mouth, bit the balloon and choked and died.

	EJMAS reviews page.
		For the neophyte, this book provides a good discussion of the difference between "chokes" and "strangles," as they are commonly called, or, as the author better describes, "oxygen chokes" and "blood chokes." Also noteworthy is the author’s observation that some chokes involve a combination of the obstruction of both blood and oxygen.
		A large portion of Classical Chokes is devoted to oxygen chokes, many being of the "pin" variety, e.g., pushing the antagonist against a wall and barring her throat with your forearm.
		Another basic choke conspicuous by its absence is the guillotine choke, which should be a staple of a choke-based self-defense system.

	Kids are passing out for a deadly high - Today - MSNBC.com
		For many of the nation's middle-school kids, it is an open secret: choking yourself or having a friend do it for you, passing out and reviving — waiting for that euphoric 10 second high as oxygen rushes back to the brain.
		They choke themselves with belts, ropes, ties, their own bare hands, or in the case of Kimberly Wilson, a bicycle chain lock, to deprive their brains of oxygen and get a drug-like high.
		This is something the kids do not seem to be talking about openly and often the deaths, when they occur, are misdiagnosed as suicides.
