I was told I could not light a match, but mom/dad would help me, at age 5.
I was told I could light a match if mom/dad were around, at age 8. Under supervision.
I was told I could light a match on my own, if mom/dad were home at 12.
If I was taught how to light a match at age 5, I would've set the house on fire for certain.
Keep the matches away from the kids, untill they're old enough (in the eyes of the Americans, that is) to be confronted with weaponry.
Ideally...don't teach them untill they have been through puberty, I'd say.
But sure, I don't have a government with corrupt police or a country with harddrugproblems and paranoid people, so what do I know about living in fear?
I don't know about living in fear, I live in the Netherlands, my life is paradise. My cops are loving, trustworthy people, there is no weaponry, no terrorism and nobody dies because of healthcarebills they can't afford.
So, do what you need to do to feel safe in America. And good luck to everyone.
