Original Note:
NNN - The data linked in previous note doesn't include all age groups or breakdown accident causes. Firearms are indeed the leading cause of death for children under 18 in the US. Here is that data from the CDC: https://wonder.cdc.gov/controller/datarequest/D158;jsessionid=035829DADAC0BF5977902CAC5F3F?stage=results&action=sort&direction=MEASURE_DESCEND&measure=D158.M1 Here is a Pew report referencing the same CDC data: https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/04/06/gun-deaths-among-us-kids-rose-50-percent-in-two-years/
