[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t respond.  It’s none of her business.  I would absolutely not divulge information on if we have guns, how many, how/where they are stored. When you send a child to someone’s house you are trusting they are a responsible parent and that anything that could be extremely dangerous is stored, handled, secured appropriately.  [/quote]

If they respond like OP to what is a very reasonable question, I’d assume they are not responsible parents, and I wouldn’t trust them. Some people actually think that telling kids to stay away from their loaded, unsecured guns is effective and safe. Unless you tell me otherwise, I’m going to assume you’re that kind of irresponsible, and I’m not sending the most precious thing in my life to your house. [/quote]

I don’t think it’s a reasonable question.  Either you trust the parents and find them to have sound and safe judgment, or you don’t.  If someone did own guns that they keep loaded, unlocked, and accessible to children- they are absolutely not going to actually tell you that. [/quote]

I have asked this question and parents answered. One said they did and told me how it was stored. My kid went over there multiple times after. I guess I managed to sound nonjudgmental about it. They were not defensive at all in answering the question. Other parents I asked said they did not have any but also didn’t seem to mind the question. [/quote]

+1. This is definitely a “hit dog hollers” situation. All of you people saying it’s none of your business, I sincerely hope you don’t learn the hard way that it actually is. [/quote]

You think a parent you barely know if going to tell you about the loaded shotgun in the coat closet? I think not.  [/quote]

Maybe not, but when they start shifting uncomfortably I have all the info I need to know. Most people are very bad liars, especially when you catch them off guard. [/quote]

Bullsh i t.

I can spot a lib turd demo from a mile away. I toy with them."Honestly, I can't remember if we still have all the  hand guns. We lent the rifles to my cousin. Maybe there's one in the basement. Really can't be sure."[/quote]
