[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please ask. We have guns and I will gladly tell you how they are stored and what safety measures we follow. I will also tell you how the knives are kept out of reach and how the basement workshop with power tools is locked up when I'm. Not in it. [/quote] +1 Same here. I've been asked 3 or 4 times and everyone really appreciated me being honest and open about the safety measures we employ and my willingness to explain our seriousness about firearm safety. If the parent were still uncomfortable with their child playing over at our home despite this, I would gladly offer to host a play date at a nearby park (weather permitting), children's museum, etc. I would not allow my children to attend a playdate in someone's home if the parent refused to answer questions re: whether they have a firearm in the home or appeared unconcerned or uneducated about firearm safety, FWIW.
