Although I will not carry if I know there are very young kids present.

Why the disconnect? It seems unreasonable that any risk brought to the table is any more or less justifiable based on age alone. Unless you're often tagged into hide-and-go-seek or pull off some crazy dance moves. But one could logically disarm at that point because of the activities.

Lots of (bad) laws get pushed with "think of the children".

I am uncomfortable while carrying around most small children, they can be clingy and huggy. and to be honest, my normal carry method doesn't have high retention. YMMV

Sounds like you need to rethink your carry method.

I have picked up and carried my grandchildren without much of a thought about it, I carry them on my right side, gun is on the left side, never ever had any issues, Once my wife told me to becareful with the grandson around my knife, I ask her which one I have two on me, her questing was "two knives and a gun, what are you afraid of?" I told her not a dang thing!

I can't speak for others but for me, if I pull up to a gate that's posted, I'd back out and go home! They'd just have to wonder what happened to their buyer or whatever transaction was suppose to take place! There would be no way I'd go out in the country unarmed! My 2cents.
