Kiddo: "How do I clean the bread knife?"
Me: "I mean, it's not exactly advised, but I just use my hand, I'll push down from the flat to the serrations to knock anything out and spread soap. You don't want to go across."
Kiddo: "Uhhhh, that sounds... not safe."
I pull out a knife from my bedside drawer that has a serrated section and show him. He watches me with terror. I rub carefully across the serration.
Kiddo: "You shouldn't be doing that!!!!"
Me: "...You need to play with knives. You're too afraid."
