OK Under Dog you just dropped a quarter in the slot and asked NO BEGGED For the rant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't just sit there and imagine you're 5 y.o. having a go with your Taig. I promise there is nothing he could do to hurt it!!!!!!! get out a block of foam or rubber and work with him on the Taig, I'm not saying put him in a room and let him go at it! But I am saying you can NEVER go wrong putting a tool in a kids hands and teaching them to use it! My daughter was out in my shop when I was working on cars the second she could crawl. As a result Mechanics HAVE TO TELL HER THE TRUTH, cuz she knows better. in this day and age when schools are getting rid of industrial arts , we parents have to step up and hand the trades down! Besides how can spending any time with a kid be bad ? [/RANT]
[RANT] What kind of dad gives his son dolls ??? tools provide better life skills [/Rant]
An idea that is not dangerous is unworthy of being called an idea at all, and Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative.
