I remember when my parents were called to school for me being hyperactive and not sitting still in class. The teachers thought it was ADHD and that I had trouble paying attention. So I got a swat upside the head and enrolled in sports. Football, boxing, tennis, basketball, volleyball, etc... It wasn't until I was 13; I was given a test in my ability to retain information and how I learned. Results said I was an active learner and bottom line... I wasn't being challenged in school. I graduated High School with a 4.2 GPA and ranked 17 out of 779 students...
Take the same case and ask how many of these kids in my case are given medication or ignored and cast aside by teachers as "bad apples"? Kids are our future and sorry to say some parents treat them as an inconvenience as opposed to a blessing. Kids killing kids happens every day in communities where kids are ignored and psychologically neglected. It happens in countries all over the world. In our country too many parents are too busy to be parents and too many "role models" are enshrined in their self absorbed agendas... Society starts at the lowest levels AT HOME. everything else is an amplification of the latter.
