The warning is that no pedestrian trying to cross a street should assume an oncoming vehicle will stop, Schrubb told News Center 7's Kate Bartley on Monday.
Schrubb and her boys were struck as the vehicle was turning onto Monument Avenue from Patterson Boulevard.
Jaxon Schrubb, 4, suffered a broken right femur. His mom and an older brother were treated at the scene for minor injuries.
Police are continuing to investigating the crash, trying to determine who had the right of way.
"We were going ice skating," Jaxon told News Center 7 on Monday.
Schrubb later said she believes they had the right away while they were crossing the street, and the driver of the car failed to yield as they were turning.
Jaxson, who has a hospital bed set up on the main floor of the house, will be in the bright red cast at least another three weeks. Or four, he said. Or five, he said.
He can't wait to get out of the cast, which he said makes him itch and has kept him out of school.
"At least it wasn't on the whole body," he said.
When she thinks about the kindness she and her family have received from strangers since the incident, kindness in the form of food, toys for Jaxon and monetary donations, Aleisha Schrubb gets teary.
"I mean yes, he did have a green light," she said of the oncoming vehicle. "But you still have to yield to your pedestrian."
