5 year olds still believe in Santa the Easter Bunny and Elmo, some can read , some can't some are just starting school, my wife who has taught 5/6 year olds for over 27 years will tell you they can't and don't have the power to rationalize or understand their actions as it pertains to the world that surrounds' them. Example...Tiger as a kid ...super golfer could out hit most adults but he didn't know why he could. Matty I agree the parents are to blame , what scares me is that this mind set is not uncommon among gun owners.
I have a 4 yr old at home and a 1 year old, I also own a 9MM but it's at the highest shelf I have in the house and also in a lock box so unless someone would open the box and take it down to the floor I don't have anything to worry about. This kids parents were just not paying attention or just not capable of owning firearms.
