It is probably not good parenting, but it would be entertaining for a while seeing the kid fuddle around like an idiot trying to do a simple task like open a can, but six hours? Come on man, if she can't figure it out in 30 minutes, just help her out. Six hours of watching your kid fail without helping is like some serious phychopath shit.

I may not be parenting material, but if the goal was to teach your kid how to use a can opener, then that was COMPLETELY the wrong way. Like, kids are visual learners, showing them how to use a can opener then letting them try on a couple cans afterwords would have been a lot quicker and a lot less frustrating for everyone involved. Giving them a can and a can opener and saying "go for it" is going to lead to 6 hours of frustration, a beat up can, and probably hundreds of hours of therapy later in life.

Its the bbc. The british have been telling people to keep a stiff upper lip over being hungry since the colonial days. I mean seriously see how bad they freak out if you say "please sir may I have some more"

It is a little weird. Especially since they had cans that needed opening. Though, many can do have tabs these days.

It's not 1950, it's a near irrelevant skill.

Something like 25% of cans have the pull tabs. Manual openers are more common than electric, and in this story they clearly don't have an electric can opener. A 9 year old should know how to operate whatever can opener is present in there home.

Opening a can is a basic life skill.

But they aren't so it's a pointless hypothetical. Everyone should have a manual can opener, even if they have an automatic one...

I use a manual one at one job and a table mounted manual one at another to open #10 cans...

Yeah, they should know how to program and operate a VCR since those still exist, as well.

How so? I went to the store one time, and all the cans I bought had tabs. What's to say another family only buys certain food in cans, and they all have pull tabs. Then a can opener would be a waste. That's what I'm saying. If what I'm saying is a pointless hypothetical, then so is what you're saying...

Can openers are a boomer skill, like faxing.
We have better ways of doing open8ng cans and sending scanned documents but people love to hold on to older methods claiming they are some how necessary.

if you're a masochist, sure, but that's not at all what that thing is designed for. the rounded end is for lifting bottle caps, and the pointy end is for punching a 2 holes in opposite sides of a juice can lid, (> <) back when a lot of fruity juices came in large cans. you *could* open a can of tuna with one if you were desperate enough, but that is by no means what any reasonable person would describe as a "can opener".

ahh, you don't know the technique. It is tricky and, yes, it does help if the rim is higher than normal, but you can indeed EZ MODE pop a can lid off with one of those.

I'm just saying that it's good to know how to use and own useful tools, even if you don't have a daily need for it. Why be unprepared for something so basic as opening a canned food?
