How is it in a fire that a parent watched his son or a friend watched his friend pull the fire alarm?

In a fire how is it that a father watched his son pull the fire alarm or a friend watched his friend pull the fire alarm? Can a mature son who knows there is a fire ask his dad if he could pull the alarm? Could the father go with the son in a safe location to keep his son calm and to see if it is working. Could a father say to his son how to break the glass or to pull the lever down. If the lever did not go down the first time could the father say pull it again your doing a good job. Or when the son is pulling the alarm can the father say you are doing a good job and say the handle will lock into place and to wait until the alarm sounds?How is it in a fire that a parent watched his son or a friend watched his friend pull the fire alarm?
None of the situations that you descirbe are really of any relevance when there is a fire in any type of occupancy. If you have the ability, regardless of age, pull the fire alarm and get out of the building. If you pull an alarm and nothing happens, get out of the building and call for help from another location. If there is a fire, that is no time to teach or coach people about alarms. A fire doubles in size every minute, so seconds mean lives.How is it in a fire that a parent watched his son or a friend watched his friend pull the fire alarm?
Good advice by Alex but you lost me when you said a fire doubles in size every minute. A number of different factors would have to determine that. It is not merely an automatic thing. There is no proof that every fire doubles in size every minute.

It could be possible. We need to teach our children how to protect themselves. But that is a strange question.
