When your children are sent off to school,regardless how young or old they are,you automaticly expect a safe arrival home.

Do parents need to be more involved in there children's lives?

Does the mold on societies exceptance need to be broken,and how?

Is bulling the root of a child's problem,feeling segrated and all alone?

What is your opion on this?



I feel for many involved,the parents who will live with a guilt for the rest of there lives,there loss,the siblings involved,the students who witnessed this out burst,those who are injuryed,those we have lost,and all those who feel as if they could have made a diffrence.

Something needs to be done to change the violent acts of are youth,and blame is just not going to cut it,there are root issues that MUST be dealt with.

My thoughts and prayes go out to all who have been effected.

Yes we should never be to busy for what,potentionally is our future.

Sterotype's,molds,they need to been taken closely into account and be a huge part of our view,not just looked at,but dealt with,its not about who's fault it is,we are behond that,obviously,but what the root of the problem is,and how we can affod further such altercations/disaster's.

We need to hear what are kids are saying,regardless what we may think,like you have said,they are are future,and at present it is very bleak.

My heart trully goes out,am a mother to 3 sons,21,20 and 16,so know how tough growing up can be,however am very much aware of the importance and the impact that open communication has as well.

Yes growing up in todays society is much more dfficult then I feel we had to endure. Peer pressure is extreme and if you don't fit the "mold" then you are cast off into another group to which you hope entry is gained.. The pressure to fit in is extreme I feel for these kids that have had to endure such a terrifying experience. It scares me to no end at times looking at what our kids have to face on a daily basis. Back in the day we went outside punched the heck out of each other and that was it. Now there are knives guns other weapons and gangs to settle affairs in the school yard or waiting for you around the corner on your way home. This is what needs changing how problems are solved but society shows through various media that violence is some sort of answer to problems. Parents also give the kids the key say cya and take off for work and then the kids are left to thier own devices I'm not saying thats wrong it just goes back to takng the time to talk to your kids and see whats going on in thier lives even a phone call home from work to ask how the day was gong etc makes a big diffeence acceptance starts in the home your right and I wish that more people could understand ths concept. I have a boy 14 and a girl turning 13 (on saturday). I feel for those parents of these Dawson kids for the road ahead isn't a very happy oneangel
