You live and learn. Nothing teaches you something like making a mistake. Baby sticks hand on sharp pointy thing, baby doesn't do it again. You can only shelter baby so much - you can't stick him in a cardboard box and hide him from the world. Baby has to learn. My parents have trouble learning their way around the wee iMac I've given them but I wouldn't dream of telling them off or laughing at them if they made a mistake on it. If someone had been there, always looking over my shoulders when I was learning about computers, I don't think I'd know half as much as I do now.
