Foster parenting and guns in the house
Hi everyone! New here! DH and I are interested in adding to our family of 2 biological DD's (7 and 8) through fostering to adopt a boy between the ages of 2 and 6.
We are very early in the process (first meeting with our agency on Tuesday), but I'm wondering about guns in the house. DH is a hunter. We have his hunting rifles stored in a locked cabinet. We also have a handgun, which we keep under our bed. It is in a case that is very hard to open for little fingers. Our daughters have been raised to respect guns and would never dream of even trying to get into the case, but obviously a foster child would be different, so in that case, we'd move that gun into the locked case as well.
Will that be good enough....having them all locked up?
