Well my mother-in-law just recently started staying home alone because husband went away to work. She is very paranoid and had a dream that woke her and she thought someone was in the house.
The husband left her untrained with a shotgun and a beretta 92f. She said she couldn't work the beretta and she has one shell in a single shot 12 guage.
When she got woke up by the dream she grabbed the shotgun and went through the house shouting "I have a gun, I have a gun" and basically cleared the home.
I tried to tell her that it was not smart to clear your house, especially with a single round in a long gun.
She thought that it was a laughing matter that she looked like a fool in the middle of the night going through her house.
I have offered to help her get aquainted to her beretta and told her about the "funnel of death" and backlighting and such, but she took it with little regard.
How can I help her with this. She is very "airheaded" so to speak. I would hate to let it go and something real show up and her do the same thing with a worse outcome.
