Keep Your Kids Safe From Gun Violence - Dr. Johanna Thomas [396]

Gun violence recently surpassed car accidents as the leading cause of death for American children. This is the reality, so how do we American parents keep our kids safe from guns? It turns out there are some very simple questions we should be asking our kid’s friends’ parents: Do you have a gun in your home or car? How is it secured?
