No please stop caging your kids and crippling your birds. I am one of 4 kids
and have 3 of my own and a "gate" has never been in our home(s). There is nmo
need as long as you educate your children and know what you are doing before
you have them. Same goes for clipping wings. I have read several child
development books and I use most of them to train my birds as well. (Since
that is what my degree is in) -Scott-
