The NRA has a lot of good programs that answer some of your wife's concerns. Get a good gun safe. Then, I think if you can show her that there are consistent, well thought out program for Basic gun ownership, Protection in the Home, and children's safety through Eddy Eagle programs that it will reduce her concerns. A lot of women worry that the gun thing is a male posturing issue not a real safety issue. ( yes, I am a woman, a wife, and a mother. I have heard and wondered about these issues before)

The courses may never alleviate her worries but they may make her balance her fears about how gun ownership affects her and her childern with her fears about her and her children's safety from threat.
