Same for school shootings. Is it worth the effort/discussion we are putting into that? To answer your question - it is worth the effort to debate it, for sure. Is it worth the effort to stop it ... TBH unsure. But I'll go back to one of my themes above, I don't think they should punish the parents. If we want to punish someone, punish the health professionals that enable and do them.

School shootings are considered by many to be an epidemic in the United States, as is gun violence in general. According to data from Everytown Research, the United States averaged just over 87 school shootings each year from 2013 to 2021, resulting in an annual average of 28.4 dead and 59.6 wounded.
