You have obviously never taken an excited 4 year old fishing. They have no concept of conservation etc. If they have ever watched dad bring home a fish for dinner and have it set in their mind that they want to eat their own fish there is nothing you can say to rationalise with them that won't end in tears and years are a bad way to end a day. If they are allowed by law to keep them then let them so long as the don't go to waste I highly doubt these people are out weekly using their kids to up their limits.
Best of luck I hope your kids catch the fishing bug. The best way to turn a kid into a conservationist is to get them excited young about fishing or hunting.
