On a scale of one to ten, one being not bothersome at all and ten being a royal pain in the hands, how would you rate trying to open childproof caps?

Most of the time, I'd rate them a 2-3.  But, there are those occasional really difficult ones.  lol

Having just had a monumental struggle with a bleach bottle at the soup kitchen yesterday I would rate them about an 8! Usually I do not have that much trouble with them, though -- maybe a 3 or 4.

Probably a 7!  I have my pharmacy substitute regular caps for me.

As I grow older, I am definitely having more difficulty with them.  For me, it often seems to be a grip thing.  I would generally rate my struggle at 5 to 8, depending on the item.
