How old do you get the kids shooting?

I'd say someplace between the ages of 5 to 10. Each individual is different and so are the places available to take them shooting. If you have private land and a safe area to shoot I think it's easier to take a younger child out and teach them to shoot than it is at a public range.

then again, some people aren't ready to handle a gun when they're in their
50's.
 
My boy started coming with us early, like 4 I believe. After a year of being at the range, witnessing proper procedures and practicing safety steps at home he was able to start shooting at about 5. I'd load 1 round in the gun at a time for the first few trips and then progressively put a another one or 2 in each trip.
