[QUOTE="WormWiggler, post: 208495, member: 245"] Much like gun control, arming teachers IMHO is lipstick on the pig. The issue is mental health stability of youth. A lot has been touched on, I would like to add that the decomposition of the traditional family is a main driver. Moms working, Dads working more hours. One parent absent, one parent not giving a shit. It has been brought up that games (which I would expand to TV and internet) are being used as babysitters. I agree 100%, how many mom's these days were well suited to be moms? Years back, most women had experience babysitting, siblings, etc. But now, single child, small families combined with the "helicopter" mom effect has removed the training to be moms. Take that and move the new family away from the parent family and siblings that used to be the support and you get some stressed out moms. Stressed out moms are (IMHO and my experience) will turn to TV, movies, internet to entertain children in order to get a much needed break. Then imagine how does mom compete with the "babysitter"????? She can't... [/QUOTE]
