That is one of life's lessons that every person should know. People who understand firearms usually respect them instead of fearing them. The gun is just a tool (just like a computer) that can be used for good or bad.

No you have been doing it right all along I suspect.

This is very true! If you take the "mystery" away from firearms, give these kids factual information about firearms then they are much less likely to do something stupid.
