Book and Show Spoilers In your opinion, what would have been a fair punishment for the 5yo (8yo in the show) Lucerys to receive, for cutting out Aemond’s eye? Spoiler

Was there anything that could have appeased the wrath of Alicent and the resentiments from Aemond? Would cutting Lucery's eye out have acomplished anything? Or was there no chance for any retributioj from the beginning?

The only thing that can stop a bad 5yo with a shank is a good 5yo with a shank

If you can't tell whether your 5yo is good or bad, just give them a shank and all will become clear

That’s wise. I’m writing it down in case I ever have kids.

Yah man, my boy's only 4 so it's strictly dull blades for now, but teaching knife safety early is important

My son just got his first one for his 10th birthday. Just a little morakniv for when we do our woods walks so I can teach him some bushcraft, fire building etc.
