| Household: - various kitchentools, knives, fork - other tools, axe, hammer - (poison) cleaning stuff - climbing on the tish and falling on their neck - ... Yes, life is dangerous, yet sadly most parents today take the approach of avoiding all dangers at all cost. And of course you should not leave dangerous things around and make it as safe as possible, but how can one learn, how to deal with dangers, when all the slightest dangers are removed? That will only hurt later on. One have to play with fire, to learn how to deal with it. If parents forbid it completely, kids will just burn stuff on their own. I did ... and luckily I never burned anything down. But friends of mine ... allmost burned down a village. |
