My Emden gander is 4 yrs. old and my grand children know not to go into the area where he is. And not to put their hands in there either. He had bitten me a few times and I always show him I am boss, by walking towards him and sometimes flapping my arms but mostly just backing him down. He is madly in love with his mother who is a Muscovy duck, so if you get close to her he will act very protective, even the chickens and ducks know to stay away from Alice. When I got bit it was because I wasn't paying good attention to where he was. I know his temperment and basically he is a pretty good boy. But he does have his moments.
