My father had guns in the closet and I never touched them without permission. My grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles had guns in the closet or behind the kitchen door and I never touched them without permission.
Heck, I barely touched the BB gun my grandparents gave me when I was 5 or, later, my Marlin Mountie, Savage 24 or Fox Model B. Okay, they were in my closet and I could touch them, but, you know, when something isn't forbidden it isn't a big deal. OTOH, I was allowed to shoot the BB gun in the basement.
And to this day I don't wear my guns out playing with them.
