APRIL 24, 2013 THRU APRIL 30, 2013 SAFETY TIP OF THE WEEK Gun Safety: Prevention Tips for Parents Keep guns away from children. If you keep a gun at home, unload and lock it away. It is your responsibility as a parent and adult that your gun is secured and away from children. Make sure that your children know the dangers of guns. Teach them not to handle or touch guns. When children come across an unsupervised gun, teach them that they should not touch the gun and should immediately get help from a parent or trusted adult. Talk to your children about guns and violence. Explain to them that we all have strong emotions like anger and fear, but that these feelings can be expressed in ways other than striking others or using weapons. Demonstrate healthy ways to express anger and disagreement. Support your children when they have used positive means of resolving conflict. During positive conflict resolution, children: Talk about feelings, rather than act them out Make choices to avoid fights Get help from trusted adults Talk to your children about the differences between violence in entertainment media and violence in real life. Gun ownership may be a right; however, gun ownership is also a RESPONSIBILITY! Once those rounds leave the chamber, YOU OWN IT, and are legally responsible for what it does!! Treat a weapon with the respect that it deserves.
