Yes, I have kids, even a grand-kid.
I taught my kids gun safety.
That doesn't mean I just read the list and handed them a
loaded gun.
They were carefully supervised when they were young. They
were taught respect for life, and proper respect of the
potential danger of a gun.
One of them has served in the military.
Those safety lessons I learned from my father, and he from
his.
No gun accidents in five generations. No crazies. No
loonies. Just kind decent folk who respect life and
liberty.
Gun safety is a good thing for everyone to learn.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

But you miss the point.
The point is to teach them. If you don't teach them anything how will they
learn?
I teach my daughter gun safety. I teach my daughter not to talk to strangers. I
teach my daughter to cross the street safely. I teach my daughter about
reproduction. When the time comes I will teach how to prevent reproduction. And
so on. Do I expect she will obey everything I teach?
Definitely not, but if I don't teach she will learn another way. At least I do
what I can. It is our duty as parents to prepare our children, the best we can.
So I teach her. Everything I can. Including gun safety.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
