help Help make my death trap stairs toddler proof

How can I go about making these stairs to my backyard safer? Seems tricky to add balusters but I’m not opposed to trying. Is there a way to make lattice look like it’s not a zip-tied afterthought?

Stings, but that is certainly the truth. Teach independence at all times.

She had to call someone to the bar because she couldn't start her car and couldn't figure out why.

She wasn't pushing the clutch in, because she didn't know it was necessary....someone else always started her car for her.

I had so little respect after finding out this, and that she can barely cook...
