When I was in college I took a course called Chemistry for Consumers. One of the things we talked about was why you should not eat your smoke detector. I think it had something to do with radioactive material Whatever the reason, I thought it was a no brainer. Why would anyone need to be told not to eat a smoke detector? Just like I never thought to have the conversation with my 4 year old on why you should not put a glue gun in the microwave.
This afternoon Dylan asked if he could use the glue gun. I was on the back deck fixing a gate. I said yes, and as soon as I was done with the gate I would help him. He came back outside and said the glue gun wasn't working. I explained that the glue needed to be heated up before it works. A few seconds later he came back outside and said the glue gun was on fire. WHAT?!? How is the glue gun on fire! I came inside to find the glue gun inside the microwave ON FIRE! Poor guy just wanted to heat up the glue. Thankfully no one was injured. I think the microwave even made out okay.

OMG! That is so scary! Poor Dylan. Good thing that he told you. Relief that no one was hurt and that the microwave survived. I can understand his logic. I wonder what he would have tried to use at my house to heat up the glue since I don't have a microwave.
