Ok, So I grew up in a household without guns.
I am currently the only one in my family of 4 brothers that even has a firearm.
In the past I have taught my daughter from an early age not to mess with guns, and to tell an adult if she finds/sees one.
Now, she is 12 and I want to start getting her to be a gun girl, but she doesnt seem interested.
I dont want to force her, and she is so disinterested, that when I try to get her to even handle one (unloaded of course, triple checked) she could care less and sweeps the house with the muzzle/ and me, because she is so dissinterested she cant even seem to comprehend the safety issues.
This is all to move her along the mindset of not being a victim.
I really need to get the Wifey trained up also.
I am thinking about getting the daughter a BB gun for christmas and starting her out next spring on plinking cans to garner an interest .
Any ideas out there?
What approaches have you INGO folks taken and what do you suggest?
