You can bot responsibly, especially if you are going to be by your computer throughout the day.
That is what I do and it works very well, I constantly check up on the screen and make sure everything is running smoothly, Ive been botting on the same account for months now and I have yet to see any issues.
Firemaking is not a skill I would personally be going for, however, you should be safe to bot it, as I doubt most people are botting just for the sake of getting the non profit skills. Which is technically what you would be doing. So, in your case, I would say you are safe and ready to go!
