The description of the Swiss mentality sounds quite normal to me as a Finn. Is the US really as bad as the article implies?
If so, what happened? Is it the insane damages you can sue for in the US that caused a climate of fear?
My kids have played with hammers saws and knives too, obviously being guided how to use those tools first. Just today my 5-year-old son was chopping carrots while we were preparing food. Had to stop him once when his big brother went WOW in front of the TV and he was about to run and check with the blade pointing in front of him. Now he probably remembers to put down the knife the next time.
