Disturbing
This highschool that they just broke up a plot where four kids were going to shoot 25 people in the cafeteria on the anniversary of columbine is literally two minutes from my house and is the high school Quinn would attend.
This is VERY disturbing, one of the first things Tony and I did when we found out I was pregnant was check out the school systems. The school that your Child attends is one of the most IMPORTANT choices you'll EVER make for a child. Winslow school district came up pretty high. Now I'm reading that that school was a mess and extremely chaotic. So if this is one of the "good" schools, what does that say for our school system?
On the radio this morning I here them speaking of "goth" kids, black trench coats, chains... They said if your child seems to suddenly turn goth it can be a warning sign of problems. I use to laugh at such nonsense because I was considered a "goth" kid in the later years of highschool. Looking back now, they are right, it was a sign of problems... I had no intention of hurting my fellow classmates or myself. But it's was the "state of mind" that I was in. You find others in that same "state of mind" and you feed off each other. Obviously this is kinda normal in high school they call them "clicks" but some clicks turn into culombine. I assume this to be the same set up for Gangs...

The rich suburban schools are the ones having most of the shootings. Maybe the average school with it's share of 'goth' kids, etc... is healthier - the kids get it out of their systems day to day?
I just read in the paper today that there was a bomb threat at my old middle school.
i might send my kids to private school. when i have kids. someday. hopefully.
