[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t pick up a gun. Assume all guns are loaded. Don’t let someone show you their parents gun. Get away from the area if someone has a gun. Not sure what to teach exactly but I feel like some sort of gun safety/avoidance should be taught. Surprised no one has mentioned this. Thanks for the other tips by the way. I didn’t know to teach “you’re not my mom/dad” instead of “no!” But it makes sense. Also adults shouldn’t be asking for kids help is a good one. I think I’ll pass on how to get out of a trunk, but maybe I should learn that for myself. [/quote] THere is an excellent, free safety program for kids called Eddie the Eagle; it teaches them to 1) not touch a gun they happen to find, 2) leave the area, and as soon as possible, 3) tell an adult. THey did this program at my kids pre-school and they still remember it. Its all about keeping kids safe. They even had a cute Eddie mascot who visited; kids loved it. [/quote]
