and aside from age, what is the difference between a 12 y/o from being burned from stovetop cooking and someone of-age? either way, it's not the parent's fault it happened, it really couldve happened anywhere, anytime, with or without parental supervision. NO ONE is intentionally burned while cooking. geez.
