Current Arizona statute allows teen minors to have a gun on their parent's private property, even without the parent's awareness or permission

PHOENIX — It's a situation you'd never want to be surprised by: your child has a gun in your home and you didn't know about it.

New legislation introduced this week, however, would require teenagers to have their parent or guardian's permission to have a gun on private property. Michelle Hicks isn't a parent, but she is a gun owner. She was surprised to learn about the current law but now hopes Nguyen's bill passes. Jennifer Crumbley, the mother of a school shooter in Oxford, Michigan, was convicted of four counts of involuntary manslaughter. She and her husband had bought their 15-year-old son the gun used in the shooting days before he killed four classmates and injured seven people in November 2021.
