What are the legal risks behind the popularity of the "carrot knife" on campus

2023-12-18

Recently, the "carrot knife" labeled as a "stress relieving tool" and "stress relieving toy" has become popular on campus. This type of "carrot knife" is a plastic product that comes out with a flick of the "blade" and then retracts with another flick. The blade is brightly colored and comes in various styles such as a pistol shape and luminous function, making it popular among students. Many videos of students holding radish knives and performing actions such as chopping, stabbing, and stabbing have also leaked online. "Playing with 'carrot knives' now will lead to playing with real knives in the future.' Toys that have a negative impact on children should be banned if necessary. 'This is the view of many parents of students who believe that even toys may have a certain psychological impact on their children. Children like to imitate scenes from movies and TV dramas to play with toy knives, guns, and so on. Among them, using a toy knife to perform actions such as stabbing, stabbing, and poking may subconsciously stimulate a child's tendency towards violence. "Triangle rulers can also pierce through white paper. Shouldn't we be able to bring rulers to school?" "Can we only let children grow up in a 'sterile room'?" Some netizens also said that "carrot knives" are not dangerous and there is no need to talk about "knives" turning pale. After all, in the childhood of the 80s and 90s, especially boys, there are stories of a gun, a stick, or a "knife" circulating. So how should parents deal with children playing with "carrot knives" in groups? Hu Meiqing, a judge of the Haidian District People's Court in Beijing, stated that underage children are individuals with no or limited capacity for civil conduct, and lack the ability to understand and handle things. As the first teachers of their children, parents should manage and educate their underage children in the right way, guide them to engage in activities that are beneficial to their physical and mental health, and focus on enhancing their self-protection awareness and social responsibility. "If a child is found to have a violent tendency while playing with a 'carrot knife' or even during play, parents should fulfill their obligation of education and guardianship." Hu Meiqing explained that the Civil Code stipulates that parents have the obligation to raise, educate, and protect their underage children. Therefore, as parents, we should pay attention to educating our children about safety knowledge, let them understand the risks and precautions of using knives, and prevent self harm and harm to others with knives. Especially for younger children, it is best to keep the knives out of their reach to prevent accidental use. Toys like "carrot knives" should also be played and used under parental supervision. In addition, although the premise of "controlled knives" is that the knives must be made of metal material, and "carrot knives" imitate the self-locking structure of spring knives but do not have the killing power of spring knives, almost all interpretations of "carrot knives" on short video platforms are sudden throwing, stabbing, and even "cutting the throat". In fact, people on major social media platforms have shown through experiments that several "carrot knives", although made of plastic material, have very hard tips that can easily pierce through white paper and pierce into apples with just a little force. Experts have stated that the "carrot knife" does indeed have certain safety hazards. The top of its toy is somewhat hard, and if children do not pay attention while playing or accidentally fall while running and chasing, it is easy to harm fragile parts of the body such as the eyes.
