🔥 Protecting Our Future 🚸🔒
Let Safety Nick protect what’s important to you.
Firearms and children are a dangerous mix. Every year, thousands of children are injured or killed due to unsecured firearms in the home. As parents, guardians, and responsible gun owners, it is our duty to ensure that firearms are stored properly and kept out of the hands of children. Teaching firearm safety at an early age can be the difference between life and death.
At Home Hazard Prevention, we are firefighters and safety experts who have seen firsthand the devastating impact of gun-related accidents involving kids. Let’s talk about how to keep your children safe when firearms are in the home or in places they visit.
🔑 Top Firearm Safety Tips for Parents & Caregivers
✅ Store firearms securely – Keep guns locked in a gun safe, cabinet, or lockbox, separate from ammunition.
✅ Use gun locks – A trigger or cable lock provides extra security to prevent accidental firing.
✅ Teach gun safety – If your child encounters a firearm, they should: STOP, DON’T TOUCH, LEAVE THE AREA, and TELL AN ADULT.
✅ Ask before playdates – When your child visits a friend’s house, ask if there are guns in the home and how they are stored.
✅ Unload firearms when not in use – Never store a loaded firearm, even if it is locked away.
✅ Lead by example – If you own firearms, always practice and demonstrate responsible gun handling.
