In my defence, maybe you shouldn't leave an inquistive toddler alone with a screwdriver after letting her watching you screw in the socket and then turning on the power.
Or a key ...when I was 3-4 I stuck one right in. I was buzzing. Funny though, I don't think it hurt...

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."
I managed to escape shocking my self in any way until I was 11 and was climbing over an electric cattle fence. It didn't hurt, just made my hair stand up on end.
