John Blaschke and his three stepdaughters live in one of the millions
of American households with both children and guns. The girls were
introduced to guns by their father, who is also a gun owner.

All along they have gotten this message: Before you touch a gun, you
should know what to do around it. Make sure it isn't loaded. Don't
ever point it at anyone.
...
These days, two of Mr. Blaschke's stepdaughters -- Meghan Nelson, 14,
and Darby Nelson, 10 -- are safe as well as skilled with guns. They
practice at the shooting range with Mr. Blaschke. Darby is thinking
of entering a competition. The third stepdaughter is not interested
in guns.
