There are many reasons for the emerging escalation of violence in our schools. The search for solutions is more useful than looking for someone or something to blame. There are ways in which everyone can contribute to school safety: parents, teachers, civic groups, government agencies and ordinary citizens. Michael Gerald Sheehan empowers students with the knowledge of what they can do to help protect their school community. School violence is certainly not our children's fault, nor is it their responsibility. However, there is something that no one but the students themselves can do to help prevent school shootings and all lesser forms of violence in school. One basic fact of human nature that can protect our children is the fact that we cannot harm those to whom we feel connected. If any of the students who have recently committed violent crimes had felt connected to their school community, they would have been unable to harm its members. The one thing students can do, that no one else can do, is make sure that every student feels he or she belongs to the student community. The end of alienation in our schools would mean not only the end of school shootings, but a dramatic decrease in every other student dysfunction: substance abuse, teen pregnancy, poor academic performance, depression and suicide. Michael Gerald Sheehan is a gifted and inspiring speaker who effectively communicates the importance of treating everyone with respect and making everyone feel included.
