What Are Your Experiances Using/buying A Cast Iron Skillet?

I am thinking of buying one but i haven't had very good experience with cast iron kitchen utensils?
Mine always seem to rust. Is it really true that you need to condition them?>
What is so specially about the cast iron?
Doesn't the food get stuck to the skillet?
ALso i have a nephew in the house that is learning to walk and i am afraid that if i turn my back he may touch the skillet, is there a fast, safe way to cool it down?

Cast Iron Pan With Rust Safe For Cooking?

Ok, I accidentally let my cast iron pan sit in the sink for a while and when I pulled it out I found a little bit of rust on it. Not much, but it definitely is there. I don't want the pan to be unusable, but is it safe?
