Two boys and a girl, of mine, started with a .22 Marlin bolt at age three. Yes, I hovered. Yes, I taught the destruction a bullet can do. Yes, all three can break down the Marlin, Glock pistols, Mossberg500, clean, lube and assemble correctly. If you get anywhere near the line while one of them is sighting for a shot if the gun has a safety it is flipped on and the gun laid on the table. If it is a Glock they will lay it on the table and yell "COLD RANGE".
They are now 13, 11 and 10.
Kids pick up the most and retain before the world infiltrates their brains. TV, video games, all that crap. Teach the young minds and keep on teaching over and over. What you teach will be retained. Once a kid starts thinking about the nonsense they are exposed to at pre school and beyond you will lose the window of retention.

Political Correctness is a doctrine, recently fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and promoted by a sick mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end!
