What can/should I do if I believe one of my children is so careless and negligent that they are a danger...?

...to my other children.

No intended malice, but Even when supervised, this child uses all possible freedoms to make the worst possible judgment calls, and they are dangerous.

Any tips?

    Talk to the kid. Ask about the choices this kid makes, propose other options and ask if the other options aren't better. Where needed show the consequences of the wrong choices, like hurting someone and then ask if that is something this kid wants. By letting them see their mistakes instead of just telling them it's wrong, you help them understand why. That makes them feel supported and most likely will help improve the situation.

    Hope this helps.
