That's true. But from what I have heard the kids were shot and went to a neighbor's house and then went back home after their Mom called them back. She could have used poison or some other weapon just as easily if she had control over her kids' behavior in this degree.

"Investigators said that earlier in the day, a neighbor was awakened by a knock at the door. The neighbor said that three of the children were there and appeared to have been shot.
The neighbor said Thomas called to them, and they went back to their home." from above wdbo.com link
One of the kids also could have used the gun in self-defense if things went another way.
