So is most everything you keep under your kitchen sink.

If you've ever been to a parenting class, you know not to keep dangerous stuff under your kitchen sink. That stuff goes up high or completely out of the house and behind a child proof lock.

Our parenting class put on by Baptist Hospital in Nashville, brought in a pharmacist to drive the point home.

He'd put a pepsi can on the pedestal, and then he put a can of stump remover with the same exact colors right beside it.

Then he'd tell a real story of a parent rushing into his pharmacy with a poisoned child asking him to give the child something. And he'd have to make a decision about whether to wait for a doctor's order or put his license on the line.

And he did the same thing with product after product after product. And you could hear the anquish in his voice with each story. It worked, we got the dangerous stuff out of reach.

I'm not sure what you keep under your kitchen sink.

A tablespoon of ammonia, or bleach, or boric acid, or potassium soap, or even turpentine or methanol is not typically fatal.

Also, they are generally not flavored with vanilla or fruit aromas to encourage ingestion (except sometimes lemon).
