Its kind of funny how almost everyone has someone in their life that doesn't understand.

My wife was almost as bad until our 1st grandchild was born. Then she began to change. She was hearing (or paying more attention to) the reports of abductions, abuse, and murders.

Thats when things started to change. At first, it was only when we were out with the little one did she start asking if I was carrying. Then she started wanting to go to the range with me. She announced 3 years ago (and 5 more grandkids) that she wanted to get her CHL.

Now, not only does she make sure I am carrying, bt she carries everywhere as well. She doesn't go to the range with me as much because her, my oldest daughter, and our neighbor go through out the week.

The only downside(s) to this is now when I get a new gun, if she likes it, it becomes hers. That and we had to get a larger safe. Oh yeah, forgot about her borrowing my ammo because she was out. Seems it nvery seldom gets put back.

All kidding aside, sometimes it takes something traumatic to happen to her or someone that is close to her (God forbid), or something as simple as talking to other women that carry.

But do not try to force the issue. This will make it worse instead of better>
