And he watched someone use his HAND to complete a circut, not his entire body. The electricity wasn't making a circut through his body cavity, it went from one finger to the other without detouring to his heart.

Why should he assume that that could be dangerous? He probably didnt make that connection.

I say that the kid should have to sit on a metal chair and have a live power line shoved up his butt.

I'd revise that book to have Percy spend a couple of days in 'Wild Bills' cell with hands and feet duct taped together

As I said, its a good rule to assume electricity, regardless of the ammount, is dangerous. Mostly because it usually is. I'm going to teach my kids to assume electricity and unknown substances and compounds are potentialy dangerous untill proven otherwise, because ITS A GOOD RULE TO HAVE, IT KEEPS YOU SAFE!!!!


Tupac, just because you don't know about something doesn't mean you're not being dumb by playing with it. In fact, thats part of what makes your actions dumb in the first place.

ok....suppose that the parents didn't teach the kid that electricity is dangerous....nor did the teacher.

surly the kid must've seen SOME movie where someone got killed by/with electricity by that point in his life.

 there is NO excuse to not know that electricity is DANGEROUS by that age. you don't have to know or understand how it works.....just that it is dangerous, and can(most likely will) KILL you.
