Violence among children is on the rise in schools – and the real solution may be at home –

Violence in schools is on the rise, and one expert points to the pandemic, which is destroying the fabric of children’s life as a motive, and believes the solution lies in the family.

Dr. Clinical psychologist Adolph Brown told DailyMail.com that more children are now committing violence than in previous years, due to the myriad of problems, many of which stem from pandemic fears and life interruptions.

He says the solutions lie in the family, because he believes that better positive behavior from parents and other authority figures will show children how to act in the right direction and respond to challenges in a controlled way.

School closures and the cancellation of many extracurricular activities during the pandemic have led to an increase in pediatric mental health problems, fueling more fighting and other violence in schools across America.

Several independent school districts have reported seeing more violent actions since schools reopened following the quarantines caused by the pandemic.

There is very little oversight of violence in schools at the national level and data may take years to collect, so the full level of this alarming increase has yet to be measured.

Many principals and inspectors in America are warning of the growing trend of violence between students and students and faculty.

“There was violence in our schools long before the pandemic, but what the pandemic did to students in America was that it destroyed many of the support systems,” Brown told DailyMail.com.

“If this is removed from the life of young people, it becomes lonely, emotional for them.”

Dr. Clinical psychologist Adolph Brown (pictured) told DailyMail.com that curbing the rise in teen violence starts at home.

Brown is the father of eight children aged 20 to 33. He said he was confident he was raising them well, not just for himself, but for his community in general.

He said this surge of emotion caused many to act out. Parents and guardians can set a positive example at home.

Brown says parents should avoid acting out and instead control their emotions. Avoid swearing, shouting and hitting. In this way, parents teach their children that these are correct courses of action.

She says it’s also important to teach conflict resolution skills. There will always be conflicts, and parents should use these moments as opportunities to teach children health and safety strategies.

In the past, many have pointed to media such as TV, movies, and video games to teach inappropriate behavior, but believe it’s just a distraction from the real problem, home culture.

“Let’s say we start to focus more on building our homes,” he said of homes pointing to external factors.

This can also instill more trust in a community and encourage other parents to raise their children well.

They explain that if a parent can trust that other children are not violent towards their child, they will teach their children not to be violent towards others.
