Overview

It's a community's worst nightmare: children, teachers or school staff hurt in violent attacks in a place where they should feel the safest-school grounds. But when it comes to violent incidents in our schools, where can we point the finger?

Some say the fault lies with improper mental health care, violence in the media or poor parenting. But for award winning educator Sean M. Brooks, personal experience points to an unexpected place.

A lack of school direction, educational flaws, questionable safety, suspect practices, outdated traditions and rituals cause school-age children to snap.

Where the Finger Pointsis an impactful look at a classroom teacher's personal experiences and opinions-with valuable advice for preventing violence in our own school systems.
