What is Rule #1 from the Rules for Kids regarding firearm safety?

  1. Don't touch!

  2. Leave the area.

  3. Stop!

  4. Tell an adult.

The correct answer is: Stop!

Rule #1 from the Rules for Kids regarding firearm safety emphasizes the importance of not engaging with firearms in any way without proper supervision. The correct focus is on the instinctive reaction to avoid potential danger. When children encounter a firearm, the priority is for them to understand that they should immediately stop and not approach the weapon, reinforcing an essential safety practice. This helps establish a clear and actionable response that prioritizes safety first and encourages children to refrain from interacting with firearms on their own. The other options also promote safety but serve different purposes. Leaving the area allows for safety from potential hazards, while telling an adult ensures that responsibility is taken for handling the situation appropriately. Not touching is crucial in preventing accidental discharges but falls under a broader understanding of maintaining distance and awareness around firearms.
