One of my best buddies, a former Marine now a cop has 2 kids, both 5 years old and he's been teaching them about gun safety and will probably keep teaching them until they are old enough to own a gun. And yeah if your kids are going to bring other kids into your house, you'd expect your children to have been taught by you and/or keep your guns secured. Unless you told your kids the combination to your safes too.
If you are NOT using the gun and it isn't your right next to the bed gun, then yeah, keeping it unloaded is a good idea, otherwise the oil you put in there for storing will bleed all over your ammo.
