My heart stopped for a second when I saw your post's title in my email inbox. Beyond terrifying. I'm also incredibly impressed with your son. I can't guarantee my 7 and 9 year old sons would respond the same way, so this is a somber reminder to have another conversation with them.

Unfortunately in the hospital, I have seen way too many children (and adults) die from gun violence. I joined this organization a few years back because I neeeded to do something with my sense of helplessness - https://momsdemandaction.org/

Gosh, this is horrifying. And makes me very glad to live in a country with much tighter gun controls. Looking from a distance, the gun culture in the US seems utterly insane. Thanks for sharing your message.
