We sometimes forget what it’s like being a kid, that is, until we become parents ourselves. Then we realize that the world is a hazardous place for a kid, who knows nothing, and needs to be taught everything. They may touch a hot stove or run out onto a busy street unless we prevent them.
So, as a parent, we must childproof our homes until they can be taught how to handle each and every thing they may come across. And yet without fail, no matter how careful we may be, the unexpected always manages to hit them right on the head anyway.
