Kids have been trained since pre-school that even drawing a picture of a gun is evil and can get you punished.

Some years ago, my 10-year-old granndaughter was visiting us. I was carrying a .22 Ruger look-alike AK-47. She said, "Ooooh, a GUN!" and recoiled. I laid the gun on the floor and said "Let's stand here and see how long it takes for it to jump up and shoot somebody". She gave me a funny look and said, "But, grandpa, it's not alive!"

Out of the mouths of babes. (She's 16 now and no longer afraid of guns.)

“She’s 16 now and no longer afraid of guns.”

I was hoping that it would have been “She’s 16 now and loves her guns.”

You need to correct this ASAP.
