Even if you've taught them, I wouldn't leave a weapon out where they can get at it. You may have taught your kid, but what about their friends? What if the firearms safety education didn't sink in as well as you thought it did?

I'd say don't leave a weapon where kids could get at it until they're at the stage where you would feel safe handing them a loaded gun and letting them carry it around unsupervised. I really doubt that a 3 1/2 year old is at that stage.
