[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And so what is your solution to this, PP? School vouchers?[/quote]

Where did the school voucher comment come from?  School should take seriously any violent threat and transfer kids to alternative schools. [/quote]

DP here.  My guess is that school shootings at private schools are incredibly rare.

But realistically, all school shootings are incredibly rare events, and your child stands a greater chance of being struck by lightning than shot in a school.

There is a real paranoia - as in an irrational, illogical fear - of our own child being at risk from a school shooting.

The risk of dying from a car crash on the way to school is far far higher.   This whole thing is driven by media sensationalism.  Examine the numbers for yourself and make rational decisions.

There should be no risk. We have become too lenient in addressing physically aggressive, violent, and emotionally disturbed individuals.[/quote]

“No risk” is not a reasonable goal.

But the US Surgeon General just published a report proving there is an unprecedented mental health crisis among our youth.  That is a fact.

Phones are a major cause, especially when paired with dangerous social media like TikTok and Instagram.  Add in the isolation of Covid and it’s obviously the perfect mix for damaging a generation.

The kids are not alright.[/quote]
