I don't have children, but if I did -- I would be less concerned about things like that and simply the amount of violence and abuse children seem to go through in schools.
The causes this are: 1) myriad, 2) the result of more than a few decades-long trends in society, and 3) are of course systemic in nature.
However, sometimes if a system is effectively unfixable and requires everyone changing their behavior at once to fix (generally impossible) you simply need to remove yourself from it.
- runawaybottle 5y agoAnecdotal, but somewhere around high school I got robbed (the school was decent, it was just in a tough area). Anyways, I basically spent the last period (last class of the day) in absolute fear. The bell would ring, I’d stick my money in my socks and try to get home safely. It was my Math class, I didn’t learn shit. Coulda used some homeschooling right about then. Whatever education I received there, or whatever friends I made, wasn’t worth four years of anxiety.
