[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't believe the amount of hand wringing by some of the uber-protective mommies around here. [b]Toy guns are not a gateway drug to the real thing.[/b][/quote] NP here. I think this point is worth a second look. If our goal is to raise children with a deep respect for human life and the damage guns can inflict, is avoiding toy guns a necessary prerequisite for that? If so, why? I'm sure we could have a conversation about highly realistic toy guns, but I'm talking about Nerf guns and colored plastic water pistols. [/quote]
