Q
I'm amazed at the number of parents who allow their children to play "paintball." I think it's just another shoot to kill game. What do you think?
A
I agree with you. Funding kids to shoot people with guns is unwise in a society where injuries from firearms are now the leading cause of death for teenage boys. It doesn't take much imagination to conclude that boys will love shooting at each other with guns, but surely parents can come up with a better use of their sons' time.
