Mine are extremely well behaved as well. I keep them locked in a safe for their own security and my own peace of mind. I wish I could do the same with my daughter. (Sigh)
Actually, although my own daughter is now almost 28 years old and has a firearm of her own to keep her company, during her high school years, my semiautos were an integral part of her dating experience. When her young man would come to the front door, one of my pistols or one of my rifles would meet him at the front door and escort him into meet the family for a quiet "chat" before their date. When they got ready to depart, likely as not, the same weapon that escorted HIM in would escort THEM out with a quiet whispered word to remember our "chat." That always worked fine for me! Try it, you'll like it and I'm certain your semiautos will be glad to assist in any way possible!
