Adults Must Get Involved to Resolve Youth Violence [JJIE.org]

 

Our organization has just completed three straight years of doing our in-school violence and bullying prevention program in middle schools and high schools throughout the United States, reaching 9,436 youth. Data and statistics aside, we adults associated with the program learned quite a bit about youth and violence.

There is an old saying about violence: “People who do violence either don’t know better or don’t care.” Our organization has now completely ruled out that kids don’t care.

Douglas....You are correct education is the key to the abuse problem. Kids are angry because their parents are angry. Kids are abusive because their a parents have been abusive or at best neglectful. Kids can be taught to think and behave differently without being insulting to their own families. Parenting and child development education is the methodology we are taking into our schools. It is time that our school administrators understand that we are in a public health crisis. The schools have access to most all of our youth 9 months of the year, 5 days a week and 7 hours each day. It is time our schools reprioritize course selection. Please take some time to look at our website www.cope24.com. We have trailer of most of the videos we have produced that are widely used by Family Consumer Science (FACS) teachers across the country. Maybe we can help each other.
