I claim: 1. A child-safe interlocking controller for attachment to a valve for use by a user comprising: a. a handle, said handle having a gripping portion and a mounting portion, wherein said gripping portion further comprises a bore; b. a valve stem; c. a valve stem attachment, said valve stem attachment attaching said handle to said valve stem; d. a push button, said push button insertedly situated within said bore of said handle, wherein said push button can slide in and with respect to said bore; e. a button shaft, said button shaft spring-biased to bear against said push button causing said push button to remain in an unpushed position, and wherein said button shaft provides limited resistance to said user's pushing said push button into a pushed position; f. a button stem, said button stem attached to said button shaft; g. a fixed washer, wherein said fixed washer has a cutout, and wherein said cutout has a groove and a hole; h. wherein said groove is adapted to receive said button stem when said push button is situated in said unpushed position; and i. wherein said hole is adapted to receive said valve stem and button stem when said push button is situated in said pushed position, thereby permitting said user to rotate said handle and said valve stem attachment. 2. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 1, said cutout further comprising a plurality of notches. 3. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 1, said fixed washer further comprising a key. 4. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 2, said fixed washer further comprising a key. 5. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 1, wherein said button shaft is perpendicularly attached to said button shaft stem. 6. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 2, wherein said button shaft is perpendicularly attached to said button shaft stem. 7. The child safe interlocking controller of claim 3, wherein said button shaft is perpendicularly attached to said button shaft stem. 8. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 3, further comprising a mount plate and a slit in said mount plate, wherein said slit is adapted for receiving said key of said fixed washer. 9. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 4, further comprising a mount plate and a slit in said mount plate, wherein said slit is adapted for receiving said key of said fixed washer. 10. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 1, said valve stem attachment further comprising a mount shaft. 11. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 1, said handle further comprising a valve stem receiver adapted for receiving said valve stem. 12. A child-safe interlocking controller for attachment to a valve for use by a user comprising: a. a handle, said handle having a gripping portion and a mounting portion, wherein said gripping portion further comprises a bore; b. a valve stem attachment, said valve stem attachment attaching said handle to said valve; c. a push button, said push button insertedly situated within said bore of said handle, wherein said push button can slide in and with respect to said bore; d. a button shaft, said button shaft spring-biased to bear against said push button causing said push button to remain in an unpushed position, and wherein said button shaft provides limited resistance to said user's pushing said push button into a pushed position; e. a restricting means for restricting the rotation of said handle, wherein said restricting means permits said rotation of said handle when said push button is in said pushed position, and wherein said restricting means prevents said rotation of said handle when said push button is in said unpushed position; and f. wherein said restricting means is substantially enveloped by said handle. 13. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 12, said restricting means further comprising a fixed washer. 14. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 12, said restricting means further comprising a cutout. 15. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 14, said cutout comprising a hole and a groove, said groove joined with said hole. 16. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 13, said fixed washer further comprising a cutout. 17. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 16, said cutout comprising a hole and a groove, said groove joined with said hole. 18. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 12, further comprising a button stem, said button stem attached to said button shaft. 19. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 15, further comprising a button stem, said button stem attached to said button shaft, and wherein said hole is adapted to receive a valve stem and said button stem when said push button is situated in said pushed position, thereby permitting said user to rotate said handle and said valve stem attachment. 20. The child-safe interlocking controller of claim 17, further comprising a button stem, said button stem attached to said button shaft, and wherein said hole is adapted to receive a valve stem and said button stem when said push button is situated in said pushed position, thereby permitting said user to rotate said handle and said valve stem attachment.
