[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 278828, member: 1550"] In my experience, all my kids tried to say touch the stove AS TODDLERS. When they got burned that was it. The child we adopted was obsessed with fire and set little fires. We didn't know he had done that until he was gone and the other kids showed me the small patches of carpet in their bedrooms where he had set fires. A little interest in my opinion is normal. Too much, not. IF they learn about safety and still don't care, even worse. I think at 13 he knew the danger. This kid in my opinion is a big red flag all the way around. I probably wouldn't think so if I hadn't had a dangerous kid in my own house--that I kept trying to tell myself wasn't as bad as I thought--but I did live the experience and sadly if you think it's bad...it is bad.
