The Harder Question: Studies show that most children don’t remember things that have happened to them if they occur before the age of four. Keeping that in mind, if you are the caregiver of a child, who at the age of three, got hold to a handgun and accidentally shot and killed a sibling/cousin/friend of about the same age, would you eventually tell him/her when he/she’s old enough to understand the ramifications of such actions?
