Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : My mom hates guns. She wants nothing do to with them. She doesn’t want me to buy I gun when I’m older, (not old enough to buy one yet), but it would make me feel safer in public. She has told me that I am being unreasonable and she goes around everyday without a gun and feels perfectly safe. That’s fine, but I’d like to have one just incase something happens. It’s better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it in my view. I feel if I do buy a gun when I get old enough my mom will resent me and it would cause tension between us.

So, Reddit, WIBTA in this situation?
