The important part is that you don't push, and she has to accept guns in her own time. Acceptance could range from you owning one and having it in the house but she doesn't ever want to know about it, to going out to the range with you every weekend and shooting better than you with that Glock 19 she picked out herself and then had coated pink.The moral of the story: she has to wake up to it herself. Lars didn't push. He talked when he knew he could, and when I told him I was done talking, he stopped. When I made the decision to accept guns in the house, he talked more, but stopped when I was done. He let me lead our discussions every time.
tinman is wise. i believe his post reads like a "how to". probably should be a sticky.
How do I get my wife not to be afraid of guns anymore. If I get a gun she thinks I will get hurt.
