&lt;strong&gt;You may have been wondering about me being involved in a profession with weapons involved but all the great therapists told my Mother that would be the best medicine to be around weapons thats why she put me in the Army and I guess that evolved into the Profession I chose :wink: I have always sat down with my Daughters and taught them about guns and what they could do if not respected or used in the right way and gun safety&#33; I never hid my guns and I always took them out shooting to show them what they could do to a person by shooting a watermelon and them seeing it explode I told them thats what it could do to a Human&#33;  All my girls are proficient with Rifles,Shotguns and Handguns and have never had a accident&#33;  I have always tried to teach gun Safety to kids and everywhere I go when a kid comes up and asks about my Weapon and asks to see it I tell them its not a Toy and a tool of my trade to protect her and her family&#33; :wink: I teach this to kids ages 5 and up so they will know what to do if they ever come across a weapon laying around and to never pick up a gun just to play with it and to tell their parents about it and also I educate the Parents as well on their responsibility as well&#33; This has been a obsession with me since my childhood to make sure no fatal accidents happen at home or anywhere else&#33; :wink: Thanks for your understanding and reading this maybe it will help others who have Guns in their homes and kids&#33; Sit down with them and take the curiosity away from them about guns as you know if you put something away and dont touch the kids are going to do their best to find out whats so interesting  about it&#33; , Kids have the biggest curiousity about things parents say dont touch and hide it from them&#33; After I talked to my kids and took them out shooting and they saw what it could do they never asked again and I never had to put my guns away except when their friends came over&#33; So everyone has their way that was mine&#33; Always assume a Gun is Loaded do not take anyones word that it is unloaded&#33; Check it First Always&#33; :wink: Just had to get this out of my system&#33; I am not telling anyone to leave their guns laying around or telling you this is the way you teach your Kids only that this is the way I did it&#33; And Im not suggesting you do it this way but if you have kids you have to do it one way or the otherif you have guns in the house&#33; :wink:   &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;]
