    Kids here are afraid to go to school (for good reason),

    Why? Who is abusing their kids by trying to convince them that they should be afraid of school?

      They’re afraid because people keep going to them and shooting kids indiscriminately. They have to do active shooter drills because it’s such a common occurrence. They don’t need convincing, it’s obvious

        Yikes. Normalizing exotic scenarios. My daughter is afraid of thunder, a much more logical and reasonable fear. Any kid that is afraid of going to school because maybe someone will be on the news is a victim of abuse. If you can’t trust your fellow man, you can’t be trusted to participate in society.
