All the OP had to do was explain her situation without adding in pointless scenarios about children that never happened.
It becomes boring and tedious having to read so many posts that all go along the same lines "What if a child had did this/that......" - Well a child didn't do this/that and if it does happen then come back and post about it.
And all you had to do was ignore anything that you considered to be not relevant. The OP obviously thought it was relevant, all you had to do was not bother remarking on it.0 -

If this isn't specifically a childrens range then normal common sense should apply regarding children and kitchen equipment.Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed.

If you quote me, don't forget the capital 'M'

Really? I can't say that letting my children use my rolling pin was likely to do them any harm.0 -

Cheap or expensive, goods must still be fit for their intended purpose and also durable and safe. Although the price of the goods can be taken into account when assessing whether those goods meet a reasonable standard, I wouldn't say that something that can cut you simply from holding the handle whilst cleaning it isn't of a good enough standard irrespective of the low price paid.
Of course, this all depends on where and how the OP was actually gripping the tongs.0
