Going out of Crane Creek this weekend

My dad got me a .22 revolver for Christmas when I was 4 years old. Most parents won't let their 15 year old kids touch a gun, let alone understand the value of starting a kid young and teaching them the right way from the get go. To this day I am happy for the way my parents raised me because I can say from experience that I'm the safest person to be around with firearms because it was engrained in me from an early age to respect them and to handle them properly. As masterkraft said, it's your daughter and your choice, but I for one applaud your enthusiasm and willingness to take a young one fishing because the way the parents that frown upon us teaching our kids to enjoy the great outdoors because "it's dangerous" are the same ones that don't understand the value in teaching their kids to do things for themselves or giving them a video game to play for hours at a time.
