Researchers surveyed nearly 900 gun-owning parents with kids younger than 18 years in the home and asked them how they store their guns.
Study author Dr. Matthew Miller is a public health researcher at Northeastern University.
He says nearly one in five respondents had at least one firearm stored in the least safe way possible, unlocked and loaded.
When they analyzed their results by age of the kids, they found that more parents chose to leave their firearms unlocked and loaded when their kids were in their teens compared to parents of younger children.
But Miller says teenagers are already at a higher risk of suicide and easy access to firearms increases that risk.
