re: OT Parents that Hunt - How early do you teach kids about killing animals?

My kids self taught by watching and being with me. From an early age he has seen where our food comes from. He has seen me catch and clean fish, process a deer from the beginning, pigs raised for butcher, etc.

Along the way I have taught him to respect the animals for what they are and what we receive from them. It's not about "blowing a deer's head off". He knows we hunt because it's fun and enjoy the challenge. We benefit with getting good, clean meat.
