    I see the same attitude in the U.S. - generally related to liability
    concerns. This seems to be a litigious society, and that dictates so
    many disclaimers and extra precautions. Just read the instructions
    for appliances, toys, paint, tools, etc. What happened individual
    responsibility and common sense? Next we'll see disclaimers on shoes
    reading "The manufacturer takes no responsibility for the use of
    these shoes on slippery surfaces or subsequent falls by the wearer." 

    Just adding to your rant, 

    Judy in Kansas, who will be enjoying moderate temperatures and sunny
    weather for the next few days.
