If your son knew before hand that y'all were going hunting then he "assumed" his friend could go. (and your son should stay home with his guest) If, on the other hand you asked your son to go after he had already made plans with his friend then you "assumed" your son's friend could go.

I do agree that your son's friend's parents need to let him learn about the shooting sports. Maybe try to get the dad involved also. It's a shame that a lot of kids these days do not get to enjoy shooting sports because of their parents beliefs.

You nailed it! Great answer Mr. Paul Myers and good to see some common sense out there.
