Im a First Responder and EMT instructor.... No way would I let a 10 year old take the course!!!

Of course not, that course is not designed for 10 Year old kids, and ten year old kids are (hopefully) not going to be needed to function as professional  First Responders. The information contained within the curricula would be taught by teaching professionals over a longer period. My point is that the curricula of the FR course  should be the minimum for First Aid instruction. Every human comes with a body, but no repair manual, so someone should at least let them see the "owners Guide" in the glove compartment. It is an absolute fact that everyone will someday have a serious illness or injury, eventually resulting in death. ( Okay, a few people may have ascended bodily into heaven without death, but my guess is that even they had a few boo-boos and owies along the way) Don't worry FR and CPR freelance instructors, I am not advising taking away your rice bowl!

Major Lord,

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee."
