It is infuriating that parents have to even spend 1 second of their lives stressing about a school shooting.

I can’t read the Emma gannon article as it’s behind a paywall, but it sounds so interesting! And I completely agree with the part you’ve shared!

I have a friend who lives in Atlanta who is a parent and was telling me after the school shooting recently, there have been fake threats of school shootings on TikTok and on Snapchat - and the police have investigated and have to take all (obviously) really seriously - they’ve all been fake. what a bloody drain resources and what another added level of stress! Can you imagine thinking of doing that?! I don’t get it. I’m glad he’s advisory, but honestly, I just think it just needs such a big change for even to become more manageable?

I don’t have children, but I’m 35 and stressed to the gills with my job and personal life - so I can’t even imagine adding a child into that mix.
