Hi Sue
I don't imagine it is being around guns that is the problem, it is probaby how they
are regarded in the household in some cases. I heard (gossip, again) that the guns
were left lying around sometimes at Mitchell's house. This is definitely a "no-no"
around here with most parents. I guess the idea is to teach the child respect for
what the gun can be used for and lying around is not teaching the child to respect
what can occur. Don't know if that has a bearing or not. I just know that most of
the kids around here who have been exposed to guns since they were small are very
cautious and obey the rules of safe gunhandling.
