I don't exactly live in a metro
My summers growing up were spent in a place that could not have been more country.

A 4-year old is not grown up nor responsible no matter
where he is raised. This kid drove an ATV into a lake, having left the house at nearly dark alone. The parents are 100% responsible for his death.

Key words being
with dad. I happen to know many instances of children in the country owning and using guns without parental supervision but I don't know of any instances where parents allowed it for a 4-year old. I also know kids that have driven various vehicles on their property/dirt roads, but don't know of any instances of 4-year olds being allowed to do it unattended. Again, a 4-year old is not grown up nor responsible enough to fend on his own no matter
where he is raised.

I've known lots of "country people". None of them are stupid enough to have let a 4-year old go off driving unattended out of eyesight, especially going on dark, maybe you knew some really retarded ones
