Not yet, now I am in grandkid territory.
Fortunately, my kid are as “crazy” as I am.
Their children do not even know, plus it is not the docs business.

A few years ago, I started explaining to my GD, about how many people consider shooting sports/hunting as evil, and what to expect. I despised doing this but was planning to *save* her from the inevitable.

As fate would have it, her dad [who was raised around guns and shooting] had her in to the doc for her annual physical. Without any warning, the doc asked her *if there were any guns in the house?* GD told me later she said: *Not that I would notice.* and that was the end of that.

Her dad, who was in the examining room at the time, told the doc ...it was none of his GD business. They had to change docs, which is unfortunate, but necessary in this day and age.

Later she said, when he asked that, the first thing that popped into her 8 y/o mind was...maybe *they* will come to take away my BB gun. I think she handled herself brilliantly. She knows I carry on our outings, and where a loaded 12g. sits for our home protection.
