Scotty, in your hypothetical situation I'd have to say "you can't always get what you want". If you WANT an elapid but worry that you or your kids might get bit, either learn how to use a snake hook and keep it locked so your kids can't get in (taking the smae precautions with it regarding them as you would a loaded gun), or don't get an elapid. View them at the zoo or on tv or in other people's collections, people who CAN handle hots without mutilating them. This seems so simple to me. If you can't resist the urge to free handle hots, DON'T GET HOTS.
