Arming Teachers

"A responsible parent has to plan for the unthinkable, no matter how offensive the unthinkable is. Because too many children have already died, and will continue to die, because parents refuse to face the issues and honestly debate ALL of the solutions.

"As parents we have to face difficult issues and make difficult choices. It might be telling a friend you won't leave your child with them until their firearms are properly secured or disposed of, or a rule that your child can't go to a house where the parents allow unsupervised trampoline play. We'd rather avoid these issues, but we can't. Because facing up to the realities of our children's lives and making decisions to keep them safe came with the territory when we brought them kicking and screaming into the world."

Writer and techie Stephen E. Wright posits that it should be unthinkable that some parents are willing to let their options for their childrens' safety be limited by the political agendas of others.

Very well written and something to pass on to others.
