Problem is that pitbulls don't see a line between dogs and humans....they only see other living things as- bigger or smaller, dominante or submissive.
The skull of a bit-bull is built more like a tiger than another dog. They have the power to kill, and a very small brain to try and over-ride 1,000's of years of breeding towards aggression.
Kids (other than your own) need to be as careful arond a pit-bull (as they do around a gun or firearm). Both are safe under strict adult supervision... but it only takes a split-second for things to go really wrong very fast.
Dogs are real good at finding their place in the family pack. They know the pecking order, but they also test from time-to-time over the years, and this is when even your own kids are at risk if an adult is not around.
