Please inform the parents of your children's friends about guns in your house. I would not allow my child to be in your home and would appreciate knowing in advance. Thanks.

If I were in your position, OP, I'd spend some time learning why the sudden interest in guns. If it is some kind of hobby, then I'd say, great, have a great time at the target range. That said, he will have to rent a storage unit and store them there because for me it is absolutely unacceptable to have a gun in the house with a child. It's unnecessary and a danger very easily avoided. It's a firm line in the sand and he would just have to deal. Sometimes, one partner's bottom line decides the issue. Let's say I want another child and I run into his bottom line that he doesn't want any more children. Well, I respect his bottom line or I leave.

You are not required to give into something that makes you feel unsafe for someone else's hobby.

Of course, it is quite possible after hearing about his interest guns, you may feel fine with a gun safe or whatever other safety precautions. You should make sure that everyone in your family has very good safety training and inform parents that you have guns in the house so that those of us who feel strongly about gun control don't accidentally accept a playdate at your house. It's the least you can do.[/quote]
