When should children be taught about gun safety?

  1. As soon as they show interest in firearms

  2. Once they reach the legal age to shoot

  3. After they've been exposed to guns on television

  4. When they are considered mature enough by a parent

The correct answer is: As soon as they show interest in firearms

Children should be taught about gun safety as soon as they show interest in firearms because it is important to educate them on the safe handling and use of guns from an early age. By starting early, children can develop a respect for firearms and learn how to responsibly interact with them. Waiting until they reach a certain age or after being exposed to guns on television may result in missed opportunities to instill the necessary safety practices. It is crucial to teach children about gun safety proactively to prevent accidents and promote responsible gun ownership.
