I'm just 22, so HOPEFULLY I've still got a lot of time to decide. As of yet, I live with my parents so all my stuff would just kinda stay here, but I'm sure they'd give the guns to my brother since he's the only other person in my family that's into guns/hunting at all. I really hope my parents would keep the shotgun here for themselves, as they don't know a lot about guns and operating a pump action is about as simple as it gets. They just need something for home protection 'cause they're getting closer to middle aged and that kinda makes them a seemingly "easier" target and I want them to have something to protect themselves with. When I move out I'll probably leave one for them anyway, if they'll let me.
But as far as if I ever have a family of my own, I'll definitely raise my kid(s) around shooting/hunting. I have yet to meet a girl I'd go out with who was turned off to guns, and if I did, I doubt I'd go out with her anyway, so that's not really an issue. Like I said before, I really hope I've got plenty of time to think about it, though.
