VIOLENCE IN SCHOOLS Violence in schools has progressed from bloody noses to bloody gun shot wounds. Kids now days observe so much violence its almost predictable that they act this way. People are SO desensitized to violence from TV, video games, videos. Kids tend to imitate what they see exposing them to violence before they can understand it doesn’t help them.
With the moral decay of our society, people act without regard for others, kids having babies, fatherless families, unsupervised and unwanted children don’t always get the necessary attention they need to function acceptably in our society. Nationally representative data from the 1991, 1993, 1995, and 1997 Youth Risk Behavior Surveys we reanalyzed to describe the percentage of students in grades 9 through 12 who engaged in behaviors related to violence. Overall response rates for each of these years were 68%, 70%, 60%, and 69%, . To value the statistical importance of time trends for these variables, logistic reflux analyses were conducted that differentiated from sex, grade, and race or ethnicity and together deferred linear and higher-order effects 1.
Many kids are being raised in violent surroundings and know no other way of setting conflict. Many children haven’t been properly loved and nurtured and therefore see no future for themselves. They want recognition like everyone else. “Acting out” brings attention they so desperately crave, like bullies bully kids for the attention. Researchers found that violent deaths associated with schools are similar to violent deaths among young people in general, suggesting that ‘when high levels of violent behavior exist among young people in a community, some of that violence will be played out in and around schools. Therefore, a rational response to the problem must consider school-associated violence in the larger community context.

If a child is exposed to violence to a point to where they see it as no big deal, it snot going to be so hard for them to get up the nerve to bring a gun to school and shoot someone.
