[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 171752, member: 1233"] Fireworks are completely legal here. I ahve had neighbors setting them off for the last month, all around us. I refuse to buy them, ESP when they are sold as a SCHOOL FUNDRAISER!! It blows my mind that they are sold as a fundraiser for various high school groups, but they make a TON of $$$ selling them. husband bought them. I had a fit when husband was clearing the table and told Jessie to go light the thingie you light the fireworks with. What did he expect a 12yo to do? Go light the thing and sit at the picnic table??? Yes, he really did!!! Of course, she got into trouble with ME because while she had permission, she was waving it around her and her (long) hair was down all around it. I made her put it totally out, not just "prop it between the boards of the picnic table" which husband wanted me to have her do. Hello??? WOOD picnic table?? I swear the man has no common sense, and would be a pyro if I let him. then he couldn't find matches to light the stupid thingie I made Jessie put out. It stays lit, and you light things from it. Not srue what it is called. But it is better than having my father in law give the kids each a cigar to light them with (he has done this with our nephew, and did this with husband every year!) We will be learning a LOT about safe handling of fireworks, my husband included. Because I am appalled, angry that he would endanger my kids this way (letting them light things outside with-NO supervision, pushing them to light firecrackers, etc...) If ANY issue was going to become a major one in our relationship, it would be this. I am going to have to be a witch with a b, but that is ok. Cause I'm the MOM! Susie [/QUOTE]
