BParents of the Ritain helicopter should learn from hunter-gatherers who let their toddlers play with machetes, if they want to have self-sufficient children, said anthropologists at University College London (UCL).

Dr. Gul Deniz Salali and her team studied BaYaka communities living in Congo's rainforests by collecting videos of 40 children from early childhood to adolescence during various activities.

They discovered that a child only 13 months old was able to hold a machete effectively, simply by observing how his parents and older siblings handled the blade.
