"...9 years old..."
“The kids in our house knew *where* the guns were located, yet we would not EVER touch them without mom and dad around. We would still be punished now...decades and decades later.”
Same in our house growing up, same in my
house. I introduced my kids at an early
age to shooting. They witnessed first
hand the destructive power that even
a small caliber weapon can deliver.
They knew where the guns were, but
had a healthy respect for them, and were
never touched without permission.
This nine year old suffers from bad
parenting. Sad.
