In my oppinion it is hard enough to keep ourselves safe and would be next to imposable to keep an eye on a 2 year old "You parents know what I mean LOL" as well as keep an eye on yourself. Are there any other parents here with small children that take them in the field with them? How do you work it out?

I have a 3-year-old girl, and I've taken her flipping AC a couple of times. I either carry her on my shoulders (cumbersome) or make her stand back when I'm doing the actual flipping. We didn't find anything.

If I'm going out for "serious" herping, or road-cruising, I go sans child (at least until she's older).
