My husband swooped down on her, grabbed her hand and pointed the gun back downrange while scolding her. Almost immediately after the gun was pointed where it should be, the gun fired again. My mother looked surprised and goes, "Oh! It shot!"

That was definitely the moment we realized she hadn't listened to ANYTHING we'd said. We repeated this scenario several times before she learned not to turn around after every shot. She could have shot either one of us during her "dance of excitement" and thank goodness no one else was in there to witness it or become a target, either. Needless to say, we aren't taking her shooting again with us anytime soon. Next time we're feeling suicidal we'll give her a call.
