standing by to answer the big questions for us. always good to hear from him and we will chat with him in a few moments. 95,000 americans are hospitalized with covid-19. nearly 205 million doses of pfizer's vaccine have gone to americans so far and the hope this morning, that this full fda approval could convince even more to get that shot. eva pilgrim joins us from right outside pfizer's headquarters here in new york with the very latest. good morning, eva. >> reporter: good morning, cecilia. this is one of the most studied vaccines in history. on top of the more than 40,000 volunteers in the clinical trials, we now have eight months worth of real world data from the more than 1.2 billion doses that were given out around the world and health officials are hoping that will reassure those who are waiting to get that first shot. this morning, major new developments in the fight against covid-19. the fda granting full approval for pfizer's vaccine, the fastest vaccine approval in fda history. >> those that have been waiting for full approval should go get your shot now. >> reporter: pfizer becoming the first vaccine to move past emergency use authorization.

their shot made with mrna does not contain any part of the coronavirus and does not alter people's dna. in order to get full fda approval pfizer had to undergo a more stringent review, submitting results from its ongoing clinical trials and proving substantial evidence of effectiveness. >> the fda not just took their time and did the due diligence that needed to be done but did it quickly and efficiently. >> reporter: the move paves the way for more corporations, government and schools to issue vaccine mandates. the pentagon now preparing to require the shot for its 1.3 million active duty troops. new york city announcing shots will now be required for all school employees with weekly testing no longer an option. and workers at united airlines have five weeks to show the now-required proof of vaccination. while the fda's full approval of the pfizer vaccine applies to those 16 and older, the agency making it clear that does not

mean it should be given off-label to younger children. >> they are not just small so we really would have to have the data and the appropriate dose before recommending that children be vaccinated. >> reporter: but this first full approval could be a game changer for those who have been hesitant to get a shot. a recent poll finding that three in ten of those unvaccinated would be more likely to get it now, and with every state in the country experiencing high community transmission except vermont and maine, more americans are dying of covid. now an average of 738 every day. florida just saw its deadliest week. healthcare workers hoping people will get the vaccine as they face a crush of covid patients. >> one of my biggest frustrations is that we're maybe not vaccinating our kids at a rate that is beneficial to evyone.

>> reporter: so what about the other vaccines? full approval for moderna and johnson & johnson is expected in the coming months. george? >> eva, thank you. let's bring in dr. francis collins. trek or the of the national institutes of health. dr. collins, thanks for joining us again. we all saw that poll showing 30% of the unvaccinated are likely to get vaccinated because of this full approval but other experts have said the impact is likely to be vanishingly small on those still holding out. what's your view? >> we'll test that question and let's celebrate a moment, a little bright sunshine here coming through the covid clouds. i think this is a big deal getting full approval and i hope of those three out of ten that have said this was a significant factor in their holding off they will see today as an opportunity to change that view, hit the reset button on all the other reasons that they heard why this is not a good idea and decide to roll up their sleeves because delta is out there looking for you. if you're unvaccinated, you're at serious risk of this very

contagious variant. >> the more significant impact could be because this clears the way for more vaccines mandates. where should vaccines be mandated and where shouldn't they be mandated? >> well, that's going to be very much up to businesses and universities and, of course, the military is now coming out to say active duty troops will need to be vaccinated. i think that's a great idea. we know this vaccine is safe and effective. we want to keep people safe and not let them get sick. you've seen already just in the last 24 hours since this approval by fda, universities in minnesota and louisiana coming out saying, okay, that does it. we were waiting for that. now we're going to mandate it for our students. there's going to be encouragements and something a little more significant here in terms of requirements but it's the right time. come on, america. we still have 85 million people who haven't gotten that first jab and they are at risk and they're putting the whole country at risk. it's time to turn that corner. >> how about vaccinations for kids? what do these trials tell us about that?

>> well, basically the approval now is for kids 16 and on into adulthood, and 12 to 15-year-olds still can get vaccinated and should be with emergency use. in terms of ki u pfizer has not yet submitted their data to the fda on 5 to 11-year-olds. that's expected maybe by late september. keep in mind, kids are not just scaled down adults. they have different immune systems and metabolism and you really have to do the careful trials to make sure you got the dose right and there aren't any surprises. realistically, george, i don't think we're going to see approval for kids under 12 until late in 2021. >> that could be some time. where do you think we are overall on the surge right now? there have been some suggestions that we could be reaching the peak of the delta variant surge. >> well, i would love to think that's true, but when i look at the data it's still going up awfully steeply. more than 150,000 cases a day and that number keeps growing. hospitalizations, 95,000.

deaths now averaging a thousand a day. yeah, maybe you could kind of peak at that curve and say maybe it's trying to find its way from this steepest slope into b, e confident of that. i do see in some states like california seems to be having a better time than they were a couple of weeks ago. but, gosh, florida, louisiana, mississippi, alabama, there is just a world of hurt going on there with so many unvaccinated people and hospitals really struggling to try to manage all the really sick people who are coming to their emergency rooms. >> what's your best recommendations on boosters right now? >> well, let's see what fda and cdc make of the data on that. you heard last week and i was part of the group of doctors that looked hard at this data that we do think boosters are going to be beneficial starting

about the week of september 20th, but i don't want to jump ahead of what fda and cdc may say over the course of the next month, but i think we can probably expect that to be the case in order to keep this protection especially in the face of delta just at the >> dr. collins, thanks for your all ri anista major developments there. the taliban drawing what it's calling a "red line," saying it will not accept extending the deadline for the u.s. to get out of the country. that deadline exactly a week away, amid the mad scramble to get americans and american allies out. our ian pannell is at the airport in kabul for us with the very latest. ian, hello. >> reporter: yeah, t.j., good morning, from hamid karzai international airport. this is now the epicenter of what the president calls the most difficult and largest air lifts in human history. and being here you can see why. all around us are refugees desperate to get out and all the time we're seeing these large military transport aircraft landing and taking off from america, from germany, from

other european and nato countries. although thousands of people are now being rescued and moved safely out of the country, there's still tens of thousands just hundreds of yards from me still desperate to get through and get out. this morning, amid mayhem around kabul's airport, evacuations are ramping up. with the august 31st deadline to withdraw all military forces now just one week away u.s. officials reporting that helicopters and troops were sent in to kabul to extract americans and airlift them to the airport but many americans and thousands of afghan allies remain. president biden indicating the pullout could be pushed back, but the taliban saying failure to meet the deadline will cause mistrust claiming it's their red line. >> if they are intent on continuing the occupation, it will provoke a reaction. >> reporter: adding to the chaos the possibility of an airport attack from isis-k, the branch of isis terrorists here in afghanistan who could exploit

the volatile situation. u.s. and coalition forces now moving quickly. planes flying almost 11,000 people out over a 12-hour period monday. more than twice the nuf people evacuated in the same period sunday. hundreds now arriving in virginia and dispersing to ft. mccoy, ft. lee, ft. bliss and other places. they're forced to leave everything they know behind,iesa cotry. like this man who just arrived in seattle with his wife and six children. he owned a clothing business in kabul and was a translator. >> it was hard, just left everything for my family, my business, my house. >> reporter: at dulles airport outside washington, d.c., this afghan and his family speaking with abc's gio benitez. he worked for the american government for more than two years, this is his first time in the united states.

>> a lot of relief. >> now i -- i think we are safe here, yeah. >> reporter: so, of course, the key question this morning, given that we're now just seven days away from that august 31st deadline is whether or not they'll have enough time to get all of the people out. we're now hearing in reporting from "the washington post" that senior u.s. officials are saying that the director of the cia wiliam burns had a secret meeting with the de facto leader of the taliban here in kabul on monday. the cia are not confirming any details of that but, of course, it would seem inevitable they would discuss a potential extension. it seems to be at the moment even at this increased pace getting everyone out in the next seven days is going to be an almost impossible task. cecilia? >> a huge task, indeed. ian, thank you so much. as you just mentioned, that august 31st deadline just days away so let's bring in martha raddatz there in washington.

martha, we are down to the wire, ian was just saying, getting all these americans and allies out not to mention the thousands of u.s. troops. we're talking about a major logistical challenge. what are you hearing from your sources on this? >> reporter: that's exactly right, cecelia. this is complicated by the fact that getting u.s. forces out of there after the evacuations will take several days in itself. they now hope they can get as many as 80,000 people out before the military has to move out. but the fear is, if the deadline is extended there is a possibility that u.s. forces are attacked by the taliban. and the last thing the white house wants right now is a scenario where u.s. forces are in a firefight that is one of the reasons there have been very few rescue missions into the city but the threat from isis is also acute around the airport in particular. i'm told by u.s. officials because of those dual threats, it is unlikely that president biden would stay if the taliban refuses to extend the deadline. they would then hope for a deal

where the taliban agrees to let those americans or afghan allies who remain in afghanistan leave by some other means, but that would obviously be a very dangerous undertaking. >> certainly. as you said, such a logistical challenge. the president is set to meet virtually later this morning with top allies. afghanistan obviously at the top of the agenda. he is under a lot of pressure on this one. >> reporter: and you'll see a strong push by france and britain in particular to extend the deadline. president biden will lay out the concerns for pushing the deadline but the g7 nations are unhappy with the way the withdrawal has been executed and want to make certain that those who need to get out get out. cecilia? >> martha raddatz in washington, thank you. george? we're going to turn now to those wildfires out west. the caldor fire at 114,000 acres is the main threat for california firefighters right now. ginger tracking the latest. good morning, ginger. >> the caldor fire did this to reno, nevada, the worst air quality they have ever reported and then that caldor fire taking

at least 447 homes, destroying them. they are still doing the survey. more than 28,000 people, you guys, this morning, are waking up not in their bed because they're evacuated from their home. they've got it 9% contained. a little glimmer of hope. they've had the first nocturnal air drops ever in northern california history. that will help fight the fire but there's also the french fire, 15,000 plus acres burned taking over the camera, eventually burning the camera. they have that one 15% contained. we will see more air quality issues and red flag warnings, t.j., on the map. excessive heat watch in arizona and far southern california. >> all right, ginger, we're going to check in with you later. we want to turn to something you have been talking about, that flooding disaster in tennessee. there's an urgent search still going on now for the missing there. our elwyn lopez is in waverly, tennessee, about 70 miles west of nashville. she's there for us with the latest. hello, elwyn. >> reporter: hey, t.j., good morning. this is what the catastrophic flooding did just days ago. take a look at this. that shed behind me swept off its foundation, toppled onto the

creek, and if you follow me over here you can see the height of the rushing waters would have been above my head on saturday. now, take a look from above. you can see the massive devastation. it goes on for up to ten miles. this is what is left behind. cars and debris tossed around by the currents. some of it still lining the creek this morning. that historic rainfall shattering records with more than 17 inches pummeling the area in less than 24 hours killing at least 21 people. approximately a dozen others still missing. search and rescue efforts will continue this morning with officials going through piles of debris with dogs trying to find those still unaccounted for. t.j.? >> all right, elwyn, thank you so much. just an absolute disaster. cecilia? >> certainly is. we're going to turn to this morning's news here in new york. new york state has a new governor. at midnight, a private ceremony for kathy hochul. officially sworn in becoming the empire state's first female

>> okay, janai, thanks very much. we're going to turn now to an abc news exclusive. a new lawsuit about the unintended firing of a handgun widely used by police, and david scott, new member of our team, welcome to "gma." thank you for bringing us this story. >> thank you so much. good morning to you all. no one needs a gun that goes off by itself but that's exactly what's being alleged in a new lawsuit that dozens of such incidents have occurred across the country involving a popular handgun and experienced police officers. brittany hilton is a mother of three daughters and a detective at the bridge city police department in texas. she never imagined what she says happened last winter inside her station house. take me back. >> sure. >> to december 1st. >> it was a normal day. i grabbed my purse and put the two straps on my forearm. my purse kind of swings out and i hear a loud pop. my first thought was my gun has gone off.

then i took one step and i felt this pain. it felt like a hot rod of metal had just been placed not only in my private, but through my leg. >> reporter: the gun was hilton's police service weapon which she says was holstered in her purse. a semi-automatic pistol called the sig sauer p320. she insists it went off on its own. hilton has now filed a $15 million federal lawsuit alleging that the sig sauer p320 has serious design and manufacturing flaws. >> it has a clear capacity to fire without the trigger being pulled under certain conditions. >> reporter: according to hilton's lawsuit, quote, there have been at least 54 reported uncommanded discharges of the p320 in 22 states and washington d.c.

sig sauer has not yet filed a response in court to hilton's suit. >> never would i believed it would have just shot me. >> reporter: at least nine other lawsuits are pending against them claiming it went off by itself. sig sauer has denied our request for comment, but publicly stated the p320 meets and exceeds all u.s. standards for safety. in the past the company has blamed plaintiffs for mishandling the gun and said in a report to hilton's police department at the time, quote, a foreign object entered the trigger guard causing the pistol to discharge. >> there's no way that could have gotten into the trigger guard and pulled that trigger. >> reporter: joshua harrison is a firearms expert and consultant for abc news and we asked him to review material from hilton's legal team. he says the company offered an upgrade in 2017 that he believes should have cured the misfire issue. >> i have not seen enough to convince me that the upgraded version is dangerous. >> several of the pending

lawsuits involve the upgraded version of the gun. is it a mystery to you what's going wrong with the updated version? >> i do not have an explanation for why the updated version should have these complaints from trained individuals. if it's not legal momentum, then it would have to be some other mechanism of failure. >> reporter: detective hilton says she now lives in pain and worries the same thing will happen to another officer. you think about that? >> every day. >> recently hilton's department has concluded that the incident was an uncommanded discharge and the department is taking the p320 out of service. there's still about 500,000 of the p320s in the u.s. used by civilians and cops. >> a real surprising story. thanks for bringing it. >> thank you. >> you can see david's full report tonight on "nightline."

setting of high cholesterol, these tumors cannot grow. they cannot spread. so potentially this is really exciting, not only f prevention, but as a target for treatment. >> could be a big breakthrough there. beyond breast cancer we've talked about this so much and know high cholesterol is linked to so many very serious health problems. what are your best tips in terms of how to manage that? >> people need to understand cholesterol is not only about what we eat. there is a big genetic component to it. also, as we age, the way our cholesterol is metabolized can be affected. it's really a pretty complex picture but in general we know that high ldl, the lousy cholesterol associated with a slew of things we would all like to avoid ranging from heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, cognitive decline like alzheimer's. the key ideally is prevention. we recommend doing that with what i call food and fitness. so you want to pay close attention, yes to your diet.

eating a diet that's largely plant-based, limiting consumption of saturated fat, fitness, the more movement, the more exercise the better and i want to be crystal clear, cecilia. if you cannot get your number below 100 for that ldh, prescription medications can be life saving and the data supports that. >> talk to your doctor about that. quickly on the two big covid headlines. full approval for the pfizer vaccine and definitely people want to know the time line for younger kids and boosters, should you get in line early if you're not yet eligible? >> i think we do expect the booster recommendation, again, in mid to late september and again in terms of this fda approval, for the vaccine, again, it shows us that they're following the data and that's why they're saying 16 and up and not 12 and up. >> always great to have you hear. >> you bet. ginger, we head over to you. >> one last look at something henri left behind, bolton, massachusetts, a tornado, the video there as it spins across the land. thankfully no injuries and the heat. we told you about the advisories in the center of the country but there is another high pressure

it's a perfect socially distanced activity and saw a big uptick in participants during covid. it wasn't just sportsmen coming out to fish. i head to high country outfitters in jackson hole to meet up with a group of women anglers. first flyfisher 101. the fly in fly-fishing refers to insects, artificial flies replicate the bugs fish normally eat and cast them on the water and if a fish is fooled you got one on the hook. this looks like a grasshopper. this one like a beetle. our crew is learning to create these flies. and they point me to a anglers raise money for breast cancer. susan mcdowell founded the group and said more women should try it. >> always anticipation of something, you don't know what it is. it's always an adventure. >> reporter: shay watkins is a third generation angler whose grandmother passed on her love of fishing.

would you choose a spa day over fishing or -- >> can i have both. >> reporter: they have a big day on the river. one guide agrees to take me out a few days later. sloan andrews-bergien. my producer and i jump into her boat and float onstate's preemmeant blue ribbon trout fishery, the snake river, over a thousand miles long traversing four states and this stretch is arguably the most scenic fly-fishing spot in america. it has a thriving trout ecosystem. >> this is a pretty special river. the energy and the movement and the moods of the snake coming through the valley, the different water levels, the different times of year. it's a powerful river. >> reporter: she says a thriving fishing women's community. >> it has definitely improved for the women. i do think we have many, many more female anglers now and women anglers. >> reporter: the numbers bear

out, 2020 survey show 30% of fly-fishing particpants were women and represent one of the fastest growing demographics in the sport. this is about the most peaceful thing i do. i forget everything when i'm out here. it's like meditation. plus, there's always the hope of catching something. >> wow! what a beauty. now, i should mention that all of the fish that we caught yesterday were released and many fly fishermen ascribe to that catch and release philosophy in part because we want to make sure that there are fish left for our sons and our daughters, guys. >> that is a great point. becky, i hate to be the one to break it to you but you will have to come home after this assignment at some point. >> no, i'm staying.am. >> coming up the star of "archer," aisha tyler is joining us live.

welcome back to "gma." we are back now with the one and only aisha tyler. you know herb, you love her, she's been on "friends" and lana kane on "archer." how are you doing this morning? >> i'm so good. how are you? >> i'm great. it is good to see you. i don't know why we do this to people oftentimes on our show

but we're about to do it to you now and we're going to have you walk us through this picture we're about to put up for everybody to see. what's going on right there. >> oh, god. why do you do this to people? why are you doing this to me? that is my class picture from the eighth grade, i believe. yeah, no, no, maybe not. maybe sophomore in high school there and i thought i was very cool. i wrote a lot of really terribly poetry about boys and, you know, kind of lurped around with my hair trying to seem sultry. that's what's going on there. >> where did that kid think she was heading in life versus where the kid now sits, aisha tyler, today. >> wow, oh, my god. well, she thought she was going to be a lawyer and i was planning on going to law school and i was already into the arts and my school had a performing arts program i had had.

margaret cho and sam rockwell attended it too. i was going to go to dartmouth and i was going to go to law school and then i'm so happy that i lost the law school bug. essentially when it was time to go to law school i was like, oh. let me give comedy a try. >> well, it all worked out. 1th season, can you believe it, 12th season of "archer" aslan that. one of the best parts of the job you get to do it in sweathasn'tsweat pants. have you gotten away from sweat pants? are you back into full outfits? >> i wish that i was. i don't know in i ever will be again. i like fully living the hashtag sweat pants life and have on athletic shorts for this. i do have on pants, everybody. but, no, i'm a casual girl at

heart. >> okay, we'll take a quick look at lana. not necessarily a casual girl. a quick look and ask about it on the other side. >> god, sometimes i think my entire life is just sneaking around. do you ever wonder if you -- i don't know -- made the wrong choice. >> like how i should have brought ray with me than you. constantly. >> i mean in a relationship. >> i wouldn't call this a relationship. >> not with you. with robert. >> oh, yeah. well, that seems terrible. >> but is it? i do love him but other times i'm just like, oh. >> what is it, aisha, about this show? the fan base is just crazy about it. i count myself among the "archer" fans. what is it that is the appeal that keeps it going? >> you know, i think the show is obviously very bawdy, very edgy, but at its core these people are -- they really love each other. they're trying to do their best under extreme circumstances because they're also supersize

and archer is the edgeiest of office comedies with a family formed in this office space and are constantly fighting with each other or taking care of each other. the show so well written all the performers are extraordinary at their job and also this kind of show that you can watch over and over and you're always going to get something else. there's so many jokes, i missed that joke the last time. it's really late and also the most beautiful animated show on tv. >> it's a show i do. i put on and sometimes i leave it looping and looping and think about the outstanding cast but jessica walter we lost. you called her she voices mallory archer. you call her the center of the little archer universe. what did she mean to the show? >> she was just -- she was our queen. she was our grand dame, she was everybody's mom, everybody's best friend. she was, you know, she was a hollywood great. you are know, everything from "play misty for me" to "arrested

development" but just would walk into a room and light it up and always made you feel seen. always quick with a compliment and right after that a really bawdy joke. she was like the best combination of mom, best friend and woman that any of us could have ever asked for and a consummate professional to the very end. just an angel. we all loved her so much. >> the last time i talked to you you talked about how busy you were during the pandemic. so many things going, you're a comedienne, host, actress, all these things and you even started doing some little drink sessions where you were having live drinks that was raising money for charity. what left do you have to do that you want to do that you haven't done yet? >> well, i've also been directing quite a bit and that's starting to take over a bigger part of my work flow life. i've been directing nonstop all year. i'm about to direct a movie then come back and do some television and that's great because in addition to all the rewarding things about it creatively atlantic, i get to go to work in sweat pants. >>ongr onayoo to talk to

you. congrats again. see you down the road. want folks to know the new season of "archer" premieres on fx and hulu. >> how about i take you to miami. a sunset in miami and you say, wait a minute. looks a little hazy. that's dust from the have haren desert. if you know anything about hurricane season, dust helps to keep activity down, so that's a good image if you're not wanting hurricanes. unfortunately we do have areas of very many and even if that helps tamp them down it will eventually go away itself so we'll be watching all those areas now to day two of our series, the pandemic parent trap

how friendship can have you take care of yourself during stressful times. janai norman is back from dunkin' donuts with that. >> youdoounuere is. obably he a dad text group, right? i imagine you do. you don't have to tell us. as the saying goes i get by with a little help from my friends. it's that group chat that you text when you're excited or stressed or overwhelmed to help you get by. >> what is the trick to making all this work? i'm trying to stay positive. it just -- having it all seems a little impossible. >> like in the series "working moms" there's power in leaning on other moms for support and for natalie, a writer and mom of two, when the pandemic hit last march, she couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. >> i all of a sudden like so many parents became a hybrid learning

whlhouse. ntally.eally strugglingotly it was a huge shift in our way of life. >> reporter: like many moms natalie had a hard time recognizing the moms of her daughters' classmates could be more than just faces on zoom but potential friends too. >> i met these women when our daughters entered kindergarten. we were friendly but because of life, everyone working, has other children we didn't reach that next level of friendship. >> i'm going too. >> reporter: one of those class moms could also relate to the need for friends. >> my family is abroad and all of my husband's family live as broad and haven't seen them for almost two years now so my friends are my family. >> reporter: making mom friends is a barrier many mothers face but natalie and danay taking the leap of faith to break the ice helping to navigate their new normal. >> it started with innocent benign cordial conversation over

techs and within days if not hours we quickly moved into the next part of our friendship. >> i don't think we could have done it without each other. >> reporter: maybe it's not a dad thing and just for moms. it takes a village for a reason. having friends who are parents who can relate can be crucial in helping keep you sane and clutch in helping get you through. george. >> important advice, let's check in with ericka souter's book "how to have a kid and a life" is out this morning. congratulations on the book coming out. >> thank you. >> parents of young children often find their old friends kind of drop away so how do you establish this social network at a time you need it. >> a lot of moms talk about feeling lonely right now and it's their body's way of telling them they need connection so what does that look like especially during a pandemic? well, that means taking time to reach out to other moms, to neighbors, to friends and spend even just ten minutes a day

having a coffee, having a conversation. taking a walk. so that you feel connected. you need to feel connected to someone who doesn't live in your house, i need to be very clear. >> tell us about this friendship compatibility test. >> oh, yeah, grown-up rules for friendship are different, george. all your friends don't have to be bffs, don't have to do big group hangs but certain things you need. is this friend a good listener? do we look forward to spending time together? do we have shared values? that's something that has become more important to people as they have children and do i feel supported? you should be able to share your highs and lows with your friends and come away feeling like you have a partner and someone that will help you through this. >> what about signs a friendship may not be working. >> just as much as we need to know how to cultivate good friendships we need to know how to let go of bad ones. a lot think it's the same thing as the high school mean girl who sets the stanford for cool and

ices you out. it could be a lot more subtle when you are an adul saying little hurtful things? is that person being overly critical and does it come from a nasty place? are they sharing things that i told them in confidence and are they talking behind the backs of our other friends? if you answers yes you're probably leaving interactions with that person feeling depressed, defeated and insure and no one needs to feel like that right now. we need friendships to lift us up and help us feel supported especially liriano during the pandemic. >> so many of us created social pods. how about social pods for parent. >> yes, i talk to lot of parents who partnered with neighbors and other parents that help each other with meal, baby-sitting, advice, menu ideas, it's just a really great person or group of people to turn to to know you're not alone in this. >> you need to have the same ideas about how to approach the pandemic. >> a lot of feelings are

worrying about how to approach safety concerns. so what you need to do is make decisions for your family. if you want your child to wear a mask they should wear a mask to school every day regardless of what everyone else says. if you have a rule you don't want unvaccinated people in your home let it be known. if these things make you feel comfortable and safe they should be nonnegotiable. >> ericka souter, thanks very much.
