Exception to application if the firearm was given to the child for lawful activity.

Third degree felony if a person who does not reside with the child is severely injured or killed.

My position after reading numerous accounts of youngsters saving families from intruders with evil intent is all kids should be trained and taught to use them safely and how to access them.

My pastor's daughter at age 7 could drop a deer with either her Bow and arrow or her AR-15 . It'd be a shame if she was denied access when she'd need her firearm for self defense or defense of her family.
Self-Defense & defense of family is a lawful activity, .... much more a lawful activity than hunting, plinking, target shooting. & pest control on the ranch.
