It's a difficult line to draw; how far to you impose safety regulations on everybody to protect the potentially unfortunate <1%.
I don't know the answer, though I'm pretty sure that we've gone too far.
I remember some of the stuff I used to get up to when a kid, much of which could have had nasty outcomes. I've let my daughters do most things, but even though they are still more restricted than I was at their age.
