February 15, 2008, Newsletter Issue #105: Arm Yourself with Knowledge

Tip of the Week

When it comes to child gun safety, it is important for parents to arm themselves with knowledge to help keep their kids out of harm's way. One way you can do this is to ask about gun safety in other people's homes before you allow your children to go there to play. While this could be an awkward conversation, it is also one that could have great implications. If your child was in a house that had a gun but was lacking the proper gun safety equipment, he or she could be in great danger. One way to ease into the conversation with other parents is to discuss other safety issues first, and then work into child gun safety. Other parents should appreciate your concerns since they also want to keep their children safe. If, however, you simply can't seem to broach the subject with some parents or can't get a straight answer about their position on gun safety that makes you feel comfortable, don't put your children at risk. Instead, invite the friends to play at your house where you won't have to worry.
