Child Damage Mitigation

This is the moment you can justify the change of equipment.

Right now you may be concerned about your speakers, but that is a cheap concern. You can buy another pair. As someone mentioned earlier, after a year or so your daughter will be much faster and still not well-controlled. It will last for a few years.

The problem is not her damaging your speakers, but speakers damaging her. Get something she is unlikely to tip over. Bottom-heavy, large base if possible. For that reason, It may be wise to avoid anything with stands. Of course, as another one said earlier, some gentle teaching from the beginning will help but there is no way she will not run into your speakers over time. Make them safe for her.

You have two speakers, but only one daughter. Think of how to protect her. Screw the speakers.

When I was growing up there were places you did not go. Physically could not go there. Then a little older there were things you did not touch. Consequences were immediate and severe. Growing up this way a child learns.

Nowadays we have this cockamamie theory the adult learns from the child. Its reached such heights of preposterousness a guy cannot even protect his speakers from a baby, and people are seriously advising changing a system just so the kid can avoid for as long as possible learning there are things you do not mess with.

I fear for our future. Really I do.

Some people have healthier look at life and priorities than others. That is all that there is.

Right. What I'm saying. They had a healthier look at life 50, 60, 100 years ago. 

I bet even back in the olden days, the President’s parents couldn’t keep little Donnie away from anything he wanted to touch. Just a hunch....

In any case, accidents happen so best to be safe. Some hifi gear is more childproof than others.
