    Research shows that parenting styles can have an impact on whether a child engages in violence. https://usat.ly/2EDaX7Y  #FloridaSchoolShooting

        Of course! Dont need a study for that. Kindness, love and disipline will always produce non violent children.

        Absolutely. Those parents who are afraid to discipline their kids or think that Johnny can do no wrong are only hurting their kids.

        No joke. Why u think there’s so much violence these days. Bad parenting and if u whip ur child and someone sees, they call child welfare on u. That’s the main reason

        Teachers are handcuffed, too. When I was in school, a swat on the butt was perfectly legal and a great deterrent. Today, you can't touch the kids because it'll scar them emotionally and hurt their feelings. Plus you'll get sued. I wouldn't want to be a teacher today.

        Our children are reflections of their parent's. If you use violence on them for punishment and call it discipline they will do the same. Punishment and discipline are two different things

        You also explain to them why they're being disciplined. If you do that, they'll understand. I understood, and my kids did too. I'm not perfect by any means, but I don't think I turned out too bad.

        Stop it. Parenting styles aren’t significantly different in the US than in other wealthy nations. We are the only country with an epidemic of mass shootings.

        Kids hear so many other messages from so many other sources, I think sometimes the positive gets drowned out, even when the parents do everything right. But that doesn't mean we can't help each other to be better parents, either. We all matter in this in one way or another.

        Did much school violence research for the “Finding Happiness in America” book. Practical reco's for teachers, parents, students and school officials. Hope this helps.>> http://familyjournal1.blogspot.com/2011/04/21-school-violence-takes-on-new-twist.html …

        You clearly fail to realize tons of people own guns of ALL varieties and don't go shoot up schools, churches, etc. The problem is NOT the guns. To think so is naive.

        No the school!!! Kick the kids out of school and wipe your hands is what schools do. Than makes them complicated in what that kid does.
