By the time the first kid here was ten, he'd already participated in several near-dismemberments and killings. They all involved his own body, fortunately (or unfortunately, I guess, depending on your viewpoint.)
That being said, though, while many - maybe most - ten-year-olds would probably do just fine with the corpse's-arm-in-class scenario, some small portion might not, and no one is in as good a position, or really has the right, to determine who is which as is a kid's parent. The discussion and decision of whether kids are ready is one that should be handled by those parents. Thus, on reflection, I come down hard on "get the damn permission slips signed first."
(P.S. Fonts look great, so you can stay. Just don't mess 'em up. But, you might have to switch the funny ID pic, as I think someone's already using Jack.)
