How to use "Handcuff" in context?
When something captures your attention, it's hard to focus on anything else. That's the case for most people at some point in their lives when they're restrained by someone else. Whether it's a loved one, friend, or acquaintance, handcuffs send a chill down our spine. Chances are, you've seen handcuffs used in movies and on television.
But handcuffs aren't just for criminals. They can also be a way of restraining someone in order to protect them or ensure their safety. In the medical profession, handcuffs can be used to restrain patients who are considered a danger to themselves or others.
