This is no venue for the law. Either way.
I had a young couple I knew in the jewelry biz, who wanted to learn to use a gun defensively. Classes went well, a smart responsible situation. They were planning on a fast release gun lock box, which is the preferred way to store a defensive firearm. They got all that stuff as required.

Later she got pregnant and her doctor sternly insisted the gun be sold or transferred away from the upscale hillside home. Which was done.

One day a couple years later a cougar leaped over a low wall into their backyard pool area while looking for water. The toddler was out there supervised by mom but the cougar was between mom and the toddler girl. By sheer luck the animal was more thirsty than ravenous. Mom had called police who took more than ten minutes to arrive. The cougar was long gone. No harm came to anyone.

I simply illustrated circumstances vary widely.

This is an issue to be decided by the families involved. And Doctors as a policy (NOT a law) should not be reflexive gun control advocates. It’s a potential accident issue, but not a medical issue. Car crashes happen, doctors advise good cars and good driving, with appropriate baby seats etc. They do not advocate moving withing walking distance to the job.
