Toy Guns for young boys this Christmas - Good or Bad?

Tweet

Christmas is about gifts, and toys are favorite gifts that children want to receive. For young boys, it will be either toy cars, robot, or toy guns. As a young boy, I somehow played with a few toy guns. But contrary to what might happened, I grew up with a negative attitude against violence. However, I did not buy any toy gun for my 7-year old son and will never buy him one. As a parent, do you usually give toy guns as presents for your young boys? What are your thoughts about parents giving one to their son? Do toy guns really affect young boys mind to be a violent man someday? Hoping for honest and kind discussion. Thanks!
