According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, the safest home for a child is one without guns. This is the best way to prevent accidental gun injuries, suicides, and homicides. If you choose to have guns in your house, you can help decrease the risk of harm to your children by following these safety rules:
☐ I have spoken to my child about what to do if they see a gun.
☐ I store my unloaded gun in a locked place.
☐ I store the ammunition in a separate locked place.
☐ My child can't access the key or combination for the gun safe or lock box.
