I think its good that your finger didn't touch the trigger, however, I think you might need to learn to take the safety off as you are drawing. The ultimate safety is your mind. If you are indexing the weapon, having the safety off isn't that big of a deal, IMO. I did something similiar to your first scenario a couple days ago. Im in bed reading and hear an out of place noise. I grab my G21 and surefire light and go through the house. I couldnt find the cause of the noise. As far as your son sneaking in when he's older,
Always identify your target. As someone else said, if you do draw down on him, I think that it would probably the first and last time he sneaks out.
