I knew i would never own a gun when I was about 9 or 10 and I saw the neighbor kids shooting at blue jays with their new bb guns. My children are young adults now and have not complained that they never got to play with guns.

(12,072 posts)I was eleven back then. We lived in the country and I went hunting by myself. I grew up with guns. Every family I knew had them. It wasn't any big deal. They were tools that we respected.
