Let’s make a law that our kids have to follow and we don’t. Gross.
You mean, like, all laws that were introduced to improve safety/health and preventing death/injuries?
Health and Safety at work (1974) Working at Height (2005)
Since introducing these “gross” laws, very preventable deaths have dropped significantly. People that have sadly gone before us paved the way for these “gross” laws to be introduced so that “our kids” aren’t one of these statistics.
Should we also undo the Factory Act, Mines and Colleries, Children and Young Persons, and Children (Protection at work) Regulations - sending toddlers back to work to die young?
“Gross” is a weird take on this.
