Knowing Danny, I don't think he was advocating for allowing your 1 year old to experience pain by accident as s learning experience.

What he was meaning was to use the vents as a learning experience taught by and with mom and dad's loving guidance. I imagine it as allowing the child to get close. They'll do this out of curiosity. Tell them no, and pull them back away from it. Then being consistent each time they get close and reiterating the no.

The vents should not be hot enough to cause a burn or start a non-flamable clothing item on fire. If it is, that's a different problem that may need a shop to correct. Harbor Freight sells cheap infrared thermometers that would allow to measure the surface temp. For $10, I'd start there. Good luck, let us know what you find. As a whole, the forum does not advocate grilling anything except steak and burgers.
