We can't expect the entire world to child proof completely. Not that it's even possible. Children need to be supervised for a reason.
It's not a case of expecting the world to be child proof completely. It's a gorilla pit in a zoo. I totally expect zoos to be child proof. I expect all the wild animal enclosures to be practically impossible for a child to enter or fall into by accident.
But that's the thing though. Any time we are out someplace and a kid gets into something and get's into trouble, we're going to turn around and blame that establishment for not being "safer." Whether it's a gorilla pit or whatever else. It is extremely rare for this sort of thing to happen. It's not like it's some sort of epidemic or something. But freak accidents do happen and always will.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
