TED - Gever Tulley

Tulley talks about 5 dangerous things which in his opinion, you should allow kids to do. Very interesting choice of 5 things and somewhat relatable to my own life. Interesting to note the pocket knife, a tool I accepted with great gratitude when I was younger, it was a good lesson in responsibility and using the tool itself lead to a whole range of other life lessons. I can see nowadays though, parents who would allow their kids a knife would be very limited. As Tulley states, Today "...we live in a world that is subjected to ever more stringent child safety regulations". Anything sharper than a golf ball he says is unsafe. Interesting.
