Indeed
Ya it was so funny he wanted to be like papa I guess he will think twice before doing that again LOL
ya his preschool teacher was eating some and he decided he wanted to try it
LOL sounds like my 4 year old grandson. Always helping me in the garden and he knows all about hot peppers. He watched his uncles try to be brave and dare each other to eat a habanero. The resulting carnival of tragedies followed as they kept fighting over the garden hose while me and my grandson just sat back and laughed our asses off. He keeps telling me "I will eat that when I grow up and I not gonna cry". I keep telling him not to grow up too fast

I can't say I would be thrilled with a teacher giving my preschool aged child a bite of ghost pepper anything. He would happily ask to try it because he tries everything but it's a bit mean when he doesn't understand what he's in for. Not go-to-jail type mean, but still uncalled for for a kid so young coming from a person of trust.

This.
Now if it were his family that offered it to him and he had been exposed to spicy food prior to this, I wouldn't have an issue at all. Maybe not giving him an actual ghost pepper pod to munch on, but tamed down in a cheese or a salsa, no problem.
If we were talking a teenager instead of a preschooler, I'd say light them up since they are mature enough by then to handle it.
I understand the concern with what the teacher did, This grandson has ate spicy before and since it was in cheese was not any concern it was a cheese bought in a local grocery store and they are hardly very hot. Grandson did not turn red cough it was more of a surprise on how it tasted he did not like it . if it had been a pod well then I probably be driving there and have the teacher try a couple of trinidads LOL
