You are going to have to make decisions on 3 binary solutions;
Set 1 You have the possibility of needing your firearm with no delay
You have time to bring your gun to battery
This is already answered, You keep your gun on an empty chamber
Set 2 You do not wish your child to have access to a working firearm
You partially disable your firearm to achieve this
Partial disabling of a firearm always leaves the possibility of, however unlikely, accidental discharge
Set 3 Your decisions on 1 & 2 essentialy are the same as your wifes
It seems she has endorsed your decisions wholeheartedly
If you think about your decisions so far, it would seem best to find a lock box thet opens at your touch or your wifes, not your sons
