If ever there was a time to unschool / homeschool your children, today is it and this article has a clear and concise picture of why.
"Adultification" is a good word for the problem, of which shooter drills are a small part.
I appreciate the comparison between "duck and cover" in the 50s to the "active school shooter" of today -- the latter being equally ineffective and as terrifying than the former (if not more).
- tropo 8y ago"duck and cover" is effective. People who did that in Hiroshima were more likely to survive.
- rolph 8y agothis can be incredibly effective as most "bullets" intentionally discharged toward a human, travel a path above knee level. This is the reason i was given to drop to the ground and stay flat while moving toward concealment and cover
- aaron695 8y agoChildren need more "Adultification". In the past "children" married, worked the mines, died, had siblings die, etc etc etc A few adult concepts won't hurt them. The inability to deal with issues because they are mollycoddled is the problem. Being taught shooting up a school is a way an impactful amount of people solves issues is what causes the feedback loop.
- rolph 8y agoIf i had a kid and i was told this kind of drill and indoctrination is happening at school, i would remove said child from that school and let that school know they will never see my childs face again unless, they can prove, and guarantee physical, and psychological safety. I would rather send my kid to a paramilitary cadet corp for an education if the school is so dangerous of an environment as these drills seem to indicate. I would not have any child be trained to fear freedom liberty and life itself.
