I tell you what is really crazy. We use water pens at nursery. You fill them with water and then screw the top on and the kiddies can draw on black boards and stuff. The caps though screw on the backwards way round so that they are supposedly child proof. What these not so intelligent people don't realise is the 2 to 4 year olds don't actually know what way round the correct way of unscrewing something is so they will try both ways and tip water everywhere.
So yup, child-safety-anything is normally pointless and just frustrating.
