52. The father got the son a shotgun so they could go hunting together
I grew up in that area and it's not unusual for a father to buy his son a shotgun for that purpose. Many of the boys I grew up with got them around their 12th birthday and then got a hunting license. Most of the ones I knew also attended gun safety classes. I'm not saying it's right or wrong, but in some areas of the country this is a right of passage for a boy.
