Good luck with that...
1) They would probably be even more sarcastic than me
2) They surely will say, that 98% of guilt in case your kids do something it is still your fault as parent.

Yes, for sure you can't control them 100% of the time, and of course you shouldn't do it. But it is your responsibility to show them what common sense is, from the very beginning.

I myself broke a tooth and did several serious cuts (a couple of stitches needed several times), doing silly things.The biggest difference is... I did them knowing what I was doing, and trying to explore my limits consciously, or doing chemical experiments just for fun. And in that time there was no internet, youtube or whatever. I went to the library and searched for that chemistry "games" myself.

If a child wants to make silly things... he/she will do it. No matter what.

Still is your paper, to teach your kids to not believe everything they see in the TV or in the internet. You should teach them to use their brains because, although they are young and might not think as an adult, they are not dumb at all.

Prohibiting things, the only you achieve is to make them more interested in that. Showing them how silly it is and make them aware of the risks / dangers is much more effective. Still... the best teacher for the long term is the own experience.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
