Fireworks are scary

Am I the only one who thinks fireworks are scary and dangerous? I like watching them but I really don't like lighting them, they scare the bajesus out of me. I don't even like sparklers, I always feel lil sparks. I can't believe we let kids play with em. I really hope my daughter feels the same way when she's older, cuz I'll have a heart attack when she's old enough to set em off.

  • I've never lit one. I have no desire to either.

    Same, but I watched them every day for over a year, and still love to watch.

    I like when they are set up, and lit by professional pyrotechnicians.

  • Kids or even adults for that matter aren't supposed to set them off unless they're licensed. If your daughter ever wants to do it a firm he'll to the no and a picture of do you want to lose an arm or die should be placed. Just saying.

  • They are illegal in NJ even sparklers. But PA they aren't so everyone gets them there. We bought sparklers to show them. I do feel fireworks are dangerous as I've seen them backfire and do damage.
  • You ease into it. Once she's older you might feel differently.

    You're not going to lose an arm from a sparkler or a smoke ball or a hen that shoots sparks out it's butt.

  • They are illegal here and I'm glad.  I like watching professional ones, but I have no desire to play with them myself.  Maybe a sparkler, but that's the extent of my pyrotechnics.

  • I like fireworks. They were illegal in AZ up until about 5 years ago so I was always fascinated by them. I do have a scar on the palm of my hand, though, because one fell over and sent sparks my direction. I was 12 and visiting family who put on a show for us.
