Psychologist comments on “Why So Many School Threats this Year?”

Molly Allen • October 15, 2015

I would add that are options for parents who are concerned about the possibility that their child might show poor judgment. One step to take as a parent is to make sure that, as much as possible, you are 'modeling' or showing your children how a mature adult handles frustration and anger. If your children see you getting 'white hot mad' and 'telling off' other people, they will think that they can do the same. Children are always watching and learning from the adults around them.
