It really was. The reasoning behind it is that the community center where the parenting classes were happening also hosted classes for elderly and disabled folk, so they put the fire alarms low enough that a feeble person in a wheel chair who couldn't raise their hand above their head could still pull it, if necessary. But they didn't bother to put plastic covers over the switches, because they were being cheap and, I guess didn't think of it.
My son was not the first, nor the last child in that class to pull the alarm. I was the only one who called 911 immediately afterwards to prevent the fire engines from showing up. But even for me, the whole building full of elderly, frail, disabled people was forced out into the winter rain.
I think after about 4 or 5 false alarms the fire department sent a nasty gram to the Community center telling them they'd have to pay for false alarms in the future. And then, finally they put plastic covers over the alarms.
And that was the last of the false alarms because babies really are quite stupid.
