Many teenagers have gone through "a stage" where someone became the object of their "frustrations" over some minor thing, often related to either some ridicule, a discipline or "telling off". Virtually all didn't act on their irrational thoughts and went on with their lives without a problem. If every one of those had been subjected to some form of "intervention", we'd be left with a lot of very disturbed people.

 

Some things are beyond comprehension and those who continually try to "understand" the incomprehensible, often drive themselves mad!!.


If you can't understand you can at least try to recognise and act against!

 

I don't believe many teenagers go through a stage where they openly talk of fantacising about killing a teacher.

 

Some people seem to be full of condemnation for the offender (fair enough) and sympathy for the victim and family (of course) but don't wish to even consider that perhaps we could learn from this, get to recognise abnormal behaviours and perhaps prevent future incidents.

 

Where would we be if everyone just shrugged their shoulders and gave excuses for why things couldn't be done?!
