If you mean the odds of a child in the US being shot- actually, very low- and has been getting lower for several years. Some groups with a political agenda claim there are more deaths from children being shot than there are ALL deaths of children- so check your sources carefully- and see how they define "Child". Assuming child means a human under 18 years old, there about 74.5 million of them in the US (some groups consider a 26 year old to be a child) The FBI Uniform Crime Report shows 454 murders of children, with about 20% being shot. That is about 1 in 818,000. However, the odds of a child being shot goes up if you live in a high crime city, belong to a gang, or commit criminal acts.

Basketball player Chauncey Billups of the Detroit Pistons makes free throw shots 88 percent of the time Find the probability that he misses his first shot and makes the second?
10.56% The probability that he misses his first shot is 12%. The probability that he makes the second shot is 88%. The probability of missing the first shot and making the second shot is 12% * 88%, or 0.12*0.88*100.
What is the probability of scoring 23 with one shot on a dartboard?
The probability, with a standard dart board, is 0.
What is the probability that the 6 child family has exactly two girls?
The probability is 2 - 6
What is the probability of a child being a boy?
It depends on the context: if you select a child at random from a girls' school, the probability is 0, while if it is at a boys' school it is 1!
What is the probability of having a normal child?
The probability is zero! There is no such thing as "normal". Every child (and adult) has some unique characteristics and that makes them not normal - in that respect.

What is the probability of a man who has BB genotype and his wife who has BO genotype to have a child who is AB?
No probability. Neither parent has an "A" for the child to inherit to make an "AB".
What is the probability that parents that have 2 boys and one girl will have a girl next?
There is not enough information on the propensity for the parents to have a child of either gender and so it is necessary to assume that the probability of the gender of the next child is independent of the genders of preceding children. In that case the probability of the next child being a girl is 1/2.There is not enough information on the propensity for the parents to have a child of either gender and so it is necessary to assume that the probability of the gender of the next child is independent of the genders of preceding children.

1 in 2

What is the probability of getting a bulls eye?
100%, if you are a good enough shot :)
What is the probability if a girl is expecting her 10Th child if rest 9 are girls?
Since having a child to a child is an independent event (assuming no outside intervention), the probability is still about 50 / 50 boy or girl.
What is the probability that each child born to two carriers of a recessive disorder allele will have the disorder?
The child will have the disorder, only if the recessive allele from both the parents is transferred to the child. Therefore, the probability is 1/4.
