Sunday Surkhi-child-proof medicine bottles

 Last week I heard a long story (TV) of how medications bottles started saving lives of babies who would not know the difference between candies and dangerous tablets. There was no safety before but then in sixties (20th century) statistics developed  how many children get hurt even losing lives and  experiments were done how to make those bottles child proof. So these bottles you see these days came into being somewhere in 1973.  Curiosity and frailty, inability to see danger etc. were thus bypassed to produce safety measure, and of course it has been worth the trouble, since then.
 However for people of my age with arthritis etc. experience is opposite. I end up asking children (a bit grown) to help me open such bottles for me. Not much curiosity but frailty is back, haha.
