Wikinews: Six-year-olds trigger emergency response with toy nuclear reactor in Germany

Two six-year-old children caused emergency services to be called out in Oelde, Germany, yesterday. They had taken an old computer case, with a radioactivity symbol and warning notice that they had printed, affixed to the side, to create a "nuclear reactor". The international radiation hazard symbol

This was reported on LoGo TIVI last week, so isn“t really up-to-the-minute news!
Just keep your kids under control!!

What do you mean keep them under control?

They were six year old kids playing a game and it was the over reaction of adults that caused the problem.

Surely it is up to the parents to prevent their kids from placing a "radioactive" sticker on anything they are going to play with out on the street??!!

The adults reacted perfectly responsibly in this case!

As a parent I would never let my kids play with radio active materials!

I worked with them (lab) for a couple of decades, and my parents didn't seem to mind.
