Ok, I'm a little concerned. Due to Facebook my wife Laura has reconnected with a friend she hasn't seen in years. They were like sisters and then somehow drifted apart. Yesterday my wife spent the entire day with her friend since they reconnected. During the course of conversation it somehow came up that I'm an active shooter. I don't mind that so much, but she said it in front of her friend's two young boys. From what Laura told me, the two boys went ballistic pleading for her to ask me to teach them. Wouldn't you know it that they just happen to be playing war with each other. They were carrying toy guns and wearing Unions caps.
Here's my concern. The boys are 10 and 13. I've taught a number of teenagers how to shoot, so I have the basics down and I know I'd be VERY careful with them to make sure they learn right. 13 I'm not so concerned about. 10 though, seems very young to me and I am very concerned on whether that is too young to properly teach. I told Laura I'd have to think about teaching them for a bit.
I don't know, maybe it's just me. Looking for some advise here. Is 10 to young? Anyone have some advise on how you would approach teaching someone that young?
Thanks for the help.
