Moms Talk Q&A: Kids and (Airsoft) Guns

The spring weather means kids are spending more time outside. Some are doing that with Airsoft guns.

Welcome back to Moms Talk, where each week, our Moms Council of experts and smart parents take your questions, give advice and share solutions.

Moms, dads, grandparents and the diverse families who make up our community have a new resource for questions about local neighborhood schools, the best pediatricians, 24-hour pharmacies and the thousands of other issues that arise while raising children.

Moms Talk is also the place to drop in to talk about the latest parenting hot topic. Do you know of local moms raising their children in the "Tiger Mother's" way and is it the best way? Where can we get information on local flu shot clinics for children? How do we talk to our children about the Tucson shootings? How can we help our children's schools weather their budget cutbacks?
