What was he thinking!
This idiot ("http://www.forums.woodnet.net/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=4007273&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=") should have been arrested for child abuse!

I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.
Regards, Woodwould.

This type of lunacy is not confined to woodies. I won't post the link because I can't find it right away. it may even be in this forum somewhere, but there is a You Tube video out there of a moron teaching his kid (still in nappies - diapers sorry) how to fire a hand gun that is almost half the size of the kid.

Seriously, I don't understand why someone would do something so stupid. My son is 7 and my daughter is 9. There is no way I would let them within 10 metres of my table saw and I scream my head off at them if they come near me when I'm using it. I want them to understand how serious it is.
He must have had to pick the kid up to hold the board too. My son is tall for his age but he wouldn't be able to pass something over the blade without me picking him up or standing on something.
Some people shouldn't be allowed near machinery. To me it shows a lack of respect for what a table saw can do to you.
Maybe I'm just paranoid having narrowly saved my son from walking off a cliff when he was 5 but the idea of letting one of my kids go near a spinning table saw blade turns my face white."I don't practice what I preach because I'm not the kind of person I'm preaching to."

It is sad and it is wrong. I don’t care how sorry he was but it is just wrong. I have my girls ( 3 and 7) in the shed all the time but I always make sure all the machines are un-plugged and they know what they can or cannot touch.
This reminds me of the bloke who took his 2 young sons out finishing in the dark. All 3 were killed. It is the saddest news this year but I’ve got to say who was he thinking.Visit my website at www.myFineWoodWork.com

It's a touchy subject because he was a local, but I have been to that wharf and there's no way I'd let either of my kids near the edge. Let alone a toddler and a kid in a pram. After dark. Makes no sense to me. The mother was there too, by the way."I don't practice what I preach because I'm not the kind of person I'm preaching to."

Let me go further, what a
idiot, and his wife is just as dumb to think it was purely an accident.
His son was/is 6, my Dad never let me touch anything, if I did I knew what would happen to me. I could never be down in his workroom by myself and if I was with him I could watch and at best pass things to him. I could never touch things really until I was about 13, which is fair enough.

Read 3 pages of the thread. Aren't they all nice people over there.
Oh I am so sorry, don't worry it is an accident. You've done your best. Better luck next time.
Well, I guess that is alright when they've all played with their grandfather's guns from the age of 2.
