In todays day and age you have to take that very serious. Last nights "Seventh Heaven" (a rerun) was about one the school kids threatening the son(simon) by pointing his finger like a gun and pretending to shoot him. Well Simon tells the dad (Pastor), the Pastor contacts the boys parents- they laugh and the boy denies it. A few days later the boy then shoots the Pastor ... What the story line boils down to is that parents and schools need to take these kinds of remarks or actions with more than a "its just kids being kids".
There is an awesome book about media violence by Col. David Grossman "Stop Teaching Our Kids to Kill It". I am not sure if it is against the rules but his webiste is www.killology.com
He is an awesome presentor for schools to get to educate the schools/community on the real dangers youth face today. Maybe if more parents took it seriously and paid more attention to their kids actions there wouldn't be so many kids killing other kids, bombing, shootings, etc......
Just my 2 cents for the day......
