Do you really think I believe your kid walks around with physical cash? Kids today don't even know what cash is. I'm not talking about getting robbed. Anyone get robbed for anything. The difference between what you're suggesting and what I'm warning about is that you're talking about using your kid as a billboard for bitcoin, meaning he has some or knows someone who does. Bad actors will do things to people regardless of whether or not they get their ransom. Does he also have a hoodie that says which bank he uses? Probably not.

I wouldn't suggest flaunting expensive watches at school either.

CEO's of publicly traded companies have private security firms. Silly examples you're throwing in my face here about a fairly obvious piece of advice honestly.

You can use multisig and carry a gun, but that won't prevent someone with bad intentions from doing harm to your kid if they think they can get your kid to cough up 12 or 24 words with a gun to his head.

We all think Bitcoin merch looks cool and you're going to spread adoption but the reality is, people will be orange pilled when they need to be. It doesn't need to come at the expense of privacy and safety for a kid. I can hear them now, "my dad bought lots of bitcoins in 2017, 2020, and 2023."

Oh really.... You don't say...
