Reply:You never know what will get the attention of a young mind and take a good hold on it. He needs something on his arms. Teaching proper PPE is as important as any other part of it. If you get kids started on using safety equipment early on then they dont have the bad habits to break that develop from not using them.Making as much progress as a one legged duck in the middle of a pond, just going in circles.
