My nephew based his life on Dennis the Menace. I was cooking a family and got called out of the kitchen where I was working alone.
Two minutes later I come back in to find this kid (maybe 5?) waving my razor sharp french knife around.
I very carefully removed it from his grasp and when I wasn’t using it I put it under a towel at the back of the counter. Told his parents to watch him.
Later he’s got it again and a steak knife.
I take all the blades, put them in a box, and put them way up high.
Come back later and he’s got a chair against the counter, a box on the counter, and he’s heading back up the chair with more of mother’s cookbooks to pile up to stand on…
Some kids are a little more extreme.
Edit: cooking a family feast, not a family (see first paragraph).

Cooking a family, you know you can go back and edit where you wrote that instead of adding an asterisk at the end of your essay.
