Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the outcome of the vote.

I would add. Have fun and your kids will want to go too. My daughter is nine and this was her first year shooting a deer rifle. She has went a few times a year for the past 5 years and enjoys the woods with Me, my Father, and Father-in-Law.
just be prepared to talk about racoons and birds and don't get upset when you have to leave after 20 minutes in the stand. When she is of age try to put them on some deer as soon as they can shoot one. My Daughter shot 2 doe this year and really wanted a buck. I think she has horn fever already.
Another thing is get a 22 auto and scope it up. Then let the little one shoot the mess out of it. They will love shooting for it.
I've made some great memories with my son ( he's almost 20 now) in the woods........He was about 8 or 9 and we were easing into the woods one day and he had to let off a little "steam" and I turned around and he was basically on the ground laughing, I proceeded to tell him that he should have done that stuff at the truck.......he then told me he didn't have to do it when we were at the truck. we got tickled and then I heard something and turned to see two flags running off........I swear I think I heard them laughing too.cdg"??"
My son started sitting in the stand with me when he was 5 years old. He shot his first deer while in the stand with me me when he was 7 using my Ruger 1 chambered in a .22-.250. he is twelve now and still sits in the stand with either me or my dad but is, in my opinion, a pretty accomplished hunter for a twelve year old. If they have an interest, it is up to you as to when to start ultimatley
