That's sensible.

In this case what's a child? At what age would you propose that someone could buy a toy gun without parental consent?

Some would consider a 16 year old is still a child, but we/the state trusts them with the responsibilty of driving a motor vehicle alone. Would a 16 year old child need to have a parent to buy a toy gun?

FWIW I agree with age_ranger, it's up to parent to teach thier kids. Some will learn and some will not. It's unfortunate for those that don't. Most of us that have or had small children have or will teach them gun safety. I feel this this should also extend to thier toys.

+1000!

Even when people try to be parents and try to teach thier kids right some kids just don't get it.

"It's for the children" is just another excuse for more government control.
