In a bid to tackle what President Emmanuel Macron described as “a senseless surge of violence,” the French government will issue a decree “within 15 days” banning the sale of knives to minors.

That will be rough for people like me who moved out on my own at 17. Also, a million things could be used as a weapon. Scissors? Screw driver (among many other tools)? This doesn’t seem like a practical way of handling the problem.
I also moved out at seventeen! And I did live without a kitchen knife for six months or so, too. I guess for me at seventeen it didn’t matter so much.
Ignorant question: Isn’t the knife making everything worse at 17 or any other age?
I don’t think a knife is going to make your cooking worse.
