[quote=Anonymous]I don't stop him from making a stick or something like that into a gun because that's imaginative play, though I sometimes want to and if it gets more life-like as he ages I will try to stop it (he's only 4). I will absolutely not buy any toy that resembles a real gun (a water gun that doesn't look like a gun is ok). How much have you talked to your son about why you're so adamant about him not playing with toy guns? I feel like 6 is old enough to have a conversation about what is going on in the U.S. and why you care so much about it. If you're just framing it as "not allowed" or "not appropriate" or even allowing the use of the word then he's going to see it the same as any other thing that he is told not to do. [/quote]
