    While we're on the subject of letting children use torches.....I've
    observed some unsettling situations in workshops with a large
    constituency of senior citizens.. Some have been doing jewelry for
    many years, love what they're doing, and are very skilled.
    Unfortunately, for a few, it's time to hang up the torch In one
    instance, a student had developed a tremor and refused to
    acknowledge that her hand was no longer steady enough to manage a
    torch safely. Most people who develop health problems that would
    affect their work adjust gracefully to their limitations or give up
    the class. But every so often, you get someone who is in total denial
    that anything is wrong...like the one who was developing serious
    memory problems and kept forgetting to turn off equipment.....and
    became indignant when it was called to his attention. How can a
    teacher or a studio monitor remove such people from a class or studio
    without bruising delicate egos or stepping on toes?
