Sad story....I agree that no parent could suffer more, or have to live with more self guilt or self hatred, the time served will be a lifetime. Some parents eventually kill themselves to be with their children.
In my house gun safety started at three years old. On the third birthday I took each kid out back, up in SC, with a .22 rifle. We shot actual objects that would show the damage caused by a bullet, and I would compare for them if this was their or someone else's hand, head, etc. I played helicopter parent while they shot until last year, nine years to the day our youngest started learning. Today my sons helicopter even adults shooting. They can detail strip/clean 1911'a, Glocks, Mossberg500's pump shotties but not their bedrooms.

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!
