Having had several small humans, who are supposed to know how, actually use= =20 mine for the intended purpose, and getting it oh so very wrong without=20 assistance, can we please kill this stupid meme? =20 Babies have a reflexive instinct to turn their head, open their mouth, and= =20 attach to whatever brushes their cheek. And trust me on this, they are=20 very hard to get unattached unless they want to, and the results of missing= =20 the target are exceedingly painful (ever grazed your knee? every 4 hours?=20 over and over for a *year* or more?) You betcha they learn the interface=20 quick, but it's with assistance from the uh, highly motivated to succeed=20 interface provider.
