Should your doctor ask your child if you own a gun?
Guidelines issued by the American Academy of Pediatric say "yes."
They warn that "Children are curious even if they’ve had some sort of firearm training. That’s why parents taking responsibility for safe gun storage is so essential.”
Doctors across the United States are being advised to interrogate children about mom and dad’s "bad" behavior.
It sounds simple enough, but the problem is that the advice ignores the benefits and exaggerates the costs of gun ownership.
