This is not about gun control! It is about a family member (or anyone) intentionally using a lethal weapon to physically harm a child, between birth and 13 years old.

For instance, a sibling who shoots a younger child is traumatized, especially if the terrorized child knows the destructive power of a weapon.

Adult alcoholics will relate these stories either when extremely intoxicated or when struggling in recovery. 

Extreme trauma creates a "chi-ult," an adult who will remain at the same emotional age when the trauma took place, even as they mature into adulthood.  Repeat offenders are one example of a chi-ult.
