I started shooting at 4 yrs old and had a rifle rack in my room at 8. By 10, I was walking around alone with a gun.
We had cleaning supplies under the sink. Fire in the fireplace, and parents that watched us to keep us out of them.

lmao!
there were so many things in my house growing up that could kill me; power tools, firearms, chemicals, wood fireplaces/stoves, farm tools and machinery...somehow i managed to survive without baby gates, cabinet locks, etc.
firearms aside, i was told early on that using chlorine bleach with acid based cleaners could create a gas that could kill you. I learned never to put anything in outlets except plugs for lights/appliances. Blenders have sharp blades. medicine could make you very sick if you took the wrong one or too much...
maybe they should ask the potential parents, "do you have any common sense?"
