Most of violent crimes committed by juveniles occur on school days. Many students report carrying a weapon in school. But, why? Many say that it is because of the horrifying crimes, rapes, and assaults that are taking place at different schools. Many people equate school violence with large urban areas: however, violence has invaded suburban and rural schools as well. Not only public schools, but also private schools are also invaded. Guns in schools have increased to the point that nobody is asure to go back home.
A teacher in Leales, Tucuman told me her students don’t want to the school toilets since many girls were raped there. So the girls take with the “something” just in self-defence in case they go to the school toilets. The juvenile offenders are sometimes fellow students, and other times non-student peers, who threaten and attack students, administrators and teachers.
‘I am afraid of going to work at school. I don’t know what is the “surprise” may await me and my students’, a teacher said once. Government and society as a whole should check up security control over schools as well on the students who must be taught and advise about the misfortune guns or knives may have when taken to school whether or not it is just for self- protection.
On their part, schools are part of the community and reflect the events of our whole society so the best they can do is to protect the students so to reduce violence.
