Should Nuclear Weapons Be Banned

Imagine a small explosion going off in your backyard. Now imagine an explosion billions of times larger. Pretty terrifying, right? The funny thing is, almost every major country in the world own nuclear and can deploy these warheads by pressing a red button.
We know if other countries had these weapons, they would attack a country over a petty dispute. For example, North Korea is trying to develop their own nuclear weapons. I think curtain countries should have the rights to own nuclear warheads and should limit the number each country can own.
If we got into a nuclear war, it can be the end of humanity. Almost every major superpower in the world would deploy their warheads. People with lives will die instantly from the blast and if not from that then from radiation poisoning.
Another idea I have is that nuclear weapons should be banned and disposed of permanently. These super weapons have no use in this world any longer. Most countries will go to the extreme to get what they want. Nuclear weapons cause death and destruction.
