[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP poster here. It's true I live in a red state, and so I'm pretty careful to ask all the right questions before sending my older girl for a playdate  (it's not uncommon in our town to keep a gun, so I always ask, and don't allow my kids to play in anyone's home where there is a gun). But I'm not sure I'd feel *that* much safer back in MoCo. Conn and OR are both pretty liberal states and look what happened there... [/quote]

Hmm, we have guns in our house that are impossible for an adult with all the right keys, knowledge, and security codes to access and load in under 20 minutes.  Seeing as it would require a child with the same knowledge (of which there aren't any) to go to three separate places in the house and make a lot of noise, AND seeing as playdates in our house aren't unsupervised, you might consider worrying about the houses of irresponsible gun owners, irresponsible pool owners, drugs users, physical abusers, etc.  I'm guessing you don't ask people if they ever have a few drinks before driving your daughter to a restaurant or home to you.
