"Another parent had been very uncomfortable by the fact that the gun had been in view of the zoom call," Mrs. Smith said on my radio show. "It's such an innocent thing that someone used to make a judgment and an accusation."
A few hours after they received the email, there was a knock at the front door. It was the police.
"The police officer came to our door right after breakfast and asked us to step outside of our home as a result of the zoom call," she told me.
Mrs. Smith's husband tried to explain to the officer that there were no guns in the house - other than the toy gun that their son had received.
"He essentially lectured us on child safety and the fact that our children are too young to interact with any guns and weapons," she said.
The officer said it did not matter that it was a toy gun and he continued to lecture the couple.
