S4E1: Schools and Violence
Please note that this episode carries a trigger warning for school shootings and gun violence.
Welcome to 2023 and Season 4! Sarah Southwell has set out a goal to focus more on education in her future episodes, and this episode is doing just that. In this episode, Sarah wants to ask an important question; what are the parents going to do about gun violence in schools? With a terrifying and devastating increase in this violence, there has been an outcry from parents asking the administration what their mitigation plans are. Parents and schools have to work together to create a solution, and Sarah shares some of her personal and professional ways to do just that. She discusses the long-term implications of gaming and gun violence imagery and why there needs to be a reshaping of the education system to change the narrative of the public school institutional model into one that is enjoyable, encouraging, and supportive of learning. It all comes down to a need for active, communicative, and (unfortunately) more restrictive parenting.
