With the recent Florida school shooting I was just really curious about this one.
Strengthening families through biblical principles.
Focus on the Family addresses the use of biblical principles in parenting and marriage to strengthen the family.
Read daily articles from Focus on the Family in the Marriage and Parenting Resources forum.
No, you should blame it on just what you eventually said.... your guidance and control of what the child is exposed to and allowed to act out with no restraint. (if we are talking about little children)
Guidance and control don't necessarily have to be discipline. The best riders don't have to use spurs on their horses.That's very true. And if there is no disciplinary action in place then eventually that child is going to wind up behind bars or worse.
"Salt" gives flavor and meaning to life, and "light" shows the safe way.Yeah I have been meaning to ask you that. What exactly does the phrase being like salt and light mean?
You have only to listen to many of the relatively calm descriptions some students give of school shootings to immediately see that they aren't too much different that the accounts seasoned and death-hardened combat veterans give of firefights. That, in itself, should be far more than just a little unsettling. Some of them speak of stepping over dead bodies almost as casually as they would describe just going down to the lunchroom.

"That generation" *Raze* just knocked is also a generation that did not see school shootings as a normal daily happening. Think about THAT for about five minutes.
Completely inappropriate committment. I knocked no one. Basic reading comprehension, Willie
You are absolutely right. And if we really DO want to get a handle on this, one of the most basic things we have to do is determine WHY senseless, vindictive violence happens so much today, when it hardly ever happened then.I can't say for certain but I took it to mean that school shootings are a recent activity and that they didn't exist back when he was in school. I could be wrong though.
There is a lot to be said for the question of whether or not we really DO want to do something about it. Even Jesus was known to ask a person IF they REALLY did want to be cured.
