It’s unknown if demonstrating responsible handling actually keeps kids safe.

      Dude, it’s ridiculous how much of an angel my kid is, but they continually make bonehead decisions, and it’s a safe bet they’ll continue to for years to come.

      It’s like fire safety. Of course you teach a kid about fire safety but leaving a bunch of matches and gas cans lying around is going to increase the likelihood that someone gets burned. Education should be used in conjunction with proper storage, not in place of it.
