We don't know. An example of one country is the USA, where according to the university of Michigan health system:

The 2002 edition of Injury Facts from the National Safety Council reports the following statistics :
Its difficult to tell but the figure is around 2010 rounded eather way.. truth...In a single year, 3,012 children and teens were killed by gunfire in the United States, according to the national data released in 2002. That is one child every three hours; eight children every day; and more than 50 children every week. And every year, at least 4 to 5 times as many kids and teens suffer from non-fatal firearm injuries. (Children's Defense Fund and National Center for Health Statistics) . Citing the most recent data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the report reveals that 2,827 children and teens died as a result of gun violence in 2003 -- more than the number of American fighting men and women killed in hostile action in Iraq from 2003 to April 2006.
"Just as gruesome as incoming casualties from a battlefield, the bodies of young gunshot victims stream into urban hospital trauma centers on the frontlines of an undeclared war on America's children," said Marian Wright Edelman, president of the Children's Defense Fund. The children that die every year from gunshot wounds come from all racial groups and are all ages. Some of the children killed by guns are too young to start kindergarten.
96,002,154,100,123 bumble bees ate a llama According to the FBI, the total number of murders in 2007 was 16,929, however, that is the total number of murders, including all weapons, so the answer is, less than 16,929.
all are, or almost all are legally considered ( Accidental death by gunshot wound). estimates between 360 and 365 a calendar year- or about one a day- on a National level. some are intentonal- a kid shot his ex-mother ( there was a divorce) in Pennsylvania about a year ago- and the poor Lady was pregnant at the time. YOu said Child firearm- implies victim was a child- about 360-365 deaths a year of this type. Keep the safety catch on!
Substantially less than died from drunk driving unless you include armed conflict between countries.
a child was kill every 3 minutes so all this year is 10,209
If by kids you mean children then the answer is far too many. If you mean young goats then the answer is enough.

Less than 1% of all firearm deaths involved what are CALLED assault rifles.
Traffic crashes by far. Most recent stats I could find showed about 29,500 total firearm deaths in the US (not just handguns, all firearms). Traffic crashes accounted for about 42,500 deaths. If you're talking about accidental deaths (that is, many of the 29,500 firearm deaths are intentional), traffic accidents are much, much more likely to cause a death than an accidental firearm death.
It depends what type of gun and ammunition he was using and what the use was for Tim's answer: More context would be appreciated. In some states, a parent can give a firearm to their child. I started shooting when I was 9 years old and living on a farm. I didn't shoot anyone and didn't kill too many critters or break too many things that I shouldn't have. If the child was trained in firearm safety and is a fairly responsible child, then what's wrong with a 12 year old child having a firearm?
