[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3828414, member: 15054"] My grandson. 3 years old. He gets to play here with papa. A little bit ago he wanted to climb up on a banister and was reaching up high and trying to pull up onto it. Not strong enough. He said I want up there. I said get it on, get on up there but when you fall down on the tile and crack your head I am going to laugh. He let go and backed away and said OH! And walked away. Then the wife chimed in and said: It's not safe to climb up there is what grandpa should have said. Yea I thought........ If I said that he would ask me WHY? I just went past the it's not safe part or the NO get away from there part and explained what could happen. Much more educational. I'm educating the boy. We were outside earlier and I showed him how to set a foot hold trap and trip it with a long stick . Yes he got the full verbal education about busted fingers etc etc. Grandma was inside. :) [/QUOTE]
