UD, you've voiced this opinion in similar posts before and I don't see

how anyone can argue that its not at least in part true.

The sheer number of safety devices on a lawn mower (can't mow

backing up), warnings on everything from coffee cups to curling irons

(for external use only??) prove that "we" have tried to protect ourselves

right out of common sense.

I myself fell off the front of the JD 50 axle I was riding on when the plow

hooked a tree root. Burned my head as I skimmed past the flywheel.

Luckily the tree root held and I wasn't plowed under.

How else was I supposed to learn how to plow?

My exception in this particular case is if this was the guy's job site,

the kid shouldn't have been there to begin with.

For the same reason we have all those other nanny items.

The child will be dead or mangled, the parents will be devastated,

someone will sue and the only one who comes out ahead will be

the ambulance chaser who probably has never seen a tractor.

Let alone drove his tractor out and used the 3 pt hitch post

hole digger to drill a hole in the ice to go fishing.
