LOGANSPORT, Ind. – A 14-year-old girl was hospitalized after her younger sister shot her in the head while "playing CSI" at their home in Logansport, Ind., the Logansport Pharos-Tribune reported Sunday.
Cass County conservation officer Brenda Louthain, who investigated the incident, said the older girl was taken to Logansport Memorial Hospital after being shot by her 11-year-old sister shortly before 10:30am Saturday morning.
The girls' parents were not at home at the time of the incident.

Another example of poor parenting, if guns aren't locked up, you lock up the ammo. Better yet, teach your children the proper handling of firearms and to treat them all as if loaded at all times and the children don't think of them as toys. This just gives the anti gunners more power in the press. I have a son younger than both and he knows they aren't touched and to get an adult if one is found.

They were both old enough to know better and she did it any way.

How can they be "old enough to know better" if they are not taught to know better? Yes, they should know better, but again, it is up to the parent/legal guardian to give them that knowledge. It doesn't just appear in their brain at a certain age.

Ok parent of the year, how about just keeping the guns away from children all together, no child under the age of 18-20 really needs a gun or know how to use one.

Which part didn't you understand? It's a pretty simple statement.
Life experiences allow things to 'appear in the brain'.
Unless a ten year old has some mental issues they know what a gun is and what it does.
