Here’s why we raised MiniDemp around things that go pew. From BB guns, to Air rifles, to .22s and even ARs.

I involve him in every aspect of being responsible with arms. From care of it, to safe shooting.

By raising him around “guns”. The mystery is gone. There is no “forbidden lore” surrounding them. He’s shot most of them, seen what they do, and has a respect for them.

Quickest way for a kid to fuck up with something? Tell them it’s forbidden and we ain’t gonna talk about it.

They will fuck with it. I promise

If you into firearms and building guns and all that? Involve your kids. Take that mystery away. Explain to them that any gun is a tool to do a job just like a shovel.
