Default anyone see it?

this morning i got up a few minutes early for school and turned on outdoor life network channel.....a kid was hunting for his first time for deer....the kid was 8!!! the show was very good and actaully showed the deer that was a 3 point buck still warm soft and flexible...not all stiff and old like the other shows...it was called heartland outdoors or something like that...i really dont think that kid should have been hunting...he was way to young and not ready...he missed a basket rack 6 or 8..not big but not small...then he missed a doe then got the 3 point...he seen the deer and the dads like ok put the crosshairs behind the shoulder and squeeze the trigger and he kept telling him to shoot and hte kids like i can see it and all kinds of excuses....i personally didnt want to kill an animal at age 8 either... i was simply to young..i loved fishing and shooting but really didnt want to kill a beautiful animal yet....i think thats what that kids problem was...you could just tell he didnt want to in a way but really wanted to in another...his dad told him to shot and he said he couldnt find it in the scope but shot a second later 3foot high just to make his dad happy i think...i dont htink a father should MAKE his kid kill an animal or shoot at any given animal if htey dont want to..it should be their choice....what do you think? anyone see it? i described it pretty good....what do you think from what i said? i just dont htink the kid was ready....
