Eight hours on the range today (a real range not an old dumb-fugk range) with eight other shooters.
This topic came up at lunch and it was unanimous. Don't talk to kids you don't know.
TTT. If there are eight at my range, I turn around and go home. Then go earlier the next day. Shoulda thought of that.

Only poor people shoot at ranges. Wish you were there to show us all the ropes. Why would I be there? I don’t has the poors.

It’s kind of an exclusive club.
Doubt you could hang.

About a month ago, my wife and I were out eating dinner and enjoying some live music on the outdoor patio of a local burger place. There were quite a few people and quite a few kids. about 5 younger kids were playing in the gravel near our table and one was innocently throwing rocks and dirt up in the air and having a good time. It was enough that the next table got up and left as the kid was getting dirt on them.... eventually it migrated to our table. I had to get up and correct the kid. I was hoping the parents would show up, but they didn't. I had to correct the kid a little while later and the mom showed up.... I asked her politely to watch her kids and keep them from ruining everyone else's time.
I've also corrected a kid for muzzle control at the gun range because pops wasn't doing it. I didn't want him shooting anyone. I was again tactful and respectful.
You know, sometimes I might think a kid has a cool hat on and might tell him so.
In general, interaction with people is probably a good thing. It'll teach your kid social skills and develop confidence.
The more I think about it, if you really don't want people talking to your kids, you should probably just not take them out in public. That's probably not good for them though.
Well, we don't rent pigs, and it's better to say it right up front because a man who does like to rent pigs is — well, he's hard to stop.

Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.

How do you know the children are strange if you don't talk to them.

Are you describing your dwelling? Because that would make sense if you are.

I don't start conversations with young children that I don't know. However, I do feel obliged to respond to a youngster if they ask me a question, or if they address me in a manner that indicates that a response is expected. I will usually talk with them if they want to talk some more, but most conversations run out of gas pretty quickly. Kids get bored talking to old farts.
