I let my kids fall down and they had to pick themselves up and brush themselves off...We also went hunting and killed livestock on our farm so my children knew what dealth looked like and smelled like. Many people have no idea what it is like to kill something with a gun. All people know is the clean fake deaths on video games....Seeing and experiencing the destructive nature of guns teaches respect and the dangers of handling dangerous tools carelessly. Farm kids had to work with not just fire arms but chainsaws, tractors, equimpement if handled carelessly could kill them or someone else...most kids today only know how to handle digital equimpment.
