London, July 02(ANI): Johnny Depp is keen on teaching his children to handle guns.

The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star, who learnt shooting at the age of six in Kentucky where he grew up, wants to pass on his experience to his kids.

"We would just go out and line up a bunch of cans and shoot with rifles, handguns and at times, submachine guns," the Daily Star quoted him as saying.

"When I was a kid it was a controlled atmosphere, we weren't shooting at humans - we were shooting at cans and bottles mostly. I will most certainly take my kids out for target practice," he added.

The Hollywood biggie has two children with his long-term partner Vanessa Paradis - Lily-Rose, 10, and Jack, seven.

Good for him, too bad he lives in Europe most of the time, he might find that right restricted somewhat!

A Hollywood big name that has moved to Europe for a lifestyle and attitude that still holds to some of the basic rural America upbringings that made him what he is.  Don't know that much about him, but this is shocking ... good, but shocking.

I hope he is able to connect with some "good ole boy" from back home that will take him and his family out for some good life lessons that they can all turn into what he remembers from his youth.

Yes , and I'm pleasantly surprised, Them seem to be better with the stories than even Fox News.

I think some Hollywood types move because some Americans are absolutely OBSESSED with celebrity and the Europeans are more casual about it.  I also think that some Americans have forgotten what a role model should be, a father, a minister, a teacher, a close relative, etc.....in some aspects, folks look to sports figures, musicians and actors as those role models and the results are quite evident that it's not working.
