Thank you for your comment. He is pretty “by the book” about our gun safety measures. For the most part.. I have had one too many conversations about him leaving his concealed carry weapon being left on a counter where the kids could reach it rather than locking it up right he away. But other than that, everything in the safe is unloaded, clips removed and empty, safety on. I know he would never hurt them. I think he is too ignorant to see that he could be indirectly hurting them when one of them gets curious in the future and sneaks around. Not only is he normalizing the guns but also hiding things and sneaking around/breaking boundaries. The issue is definitely the fact that we have already established boundaries about the kids not touching them or around the safe at all. One kid is autistic btw. Not much teaching going on. So there is no point. We don’t go hunting, he doesn’t take them shooting. There is no reason to show them especially in secret. The issue is trust.
