The cause of violence in schools can be blamed on many things. One main cause is drugs and gangs.

If drugs and gangs were eliminated, children may not be able to obtain a gun as easily as they can now. Improving parent-child relationships will also cut back on violence in schools. Even though we cannot stop music artists from producing violent music, we can control what our children listen to. Setting parental controls for the Internet will cut back on violent creations.
