That sounds like a parental problem

Children copy their parents.

Childless young people downvoting this, perhaps not able to admit they’re just like mom or dad?

For most of us I’m sorry but it’s true! Kids are mirrors; apples don’t fall far from trees. Not all of them. Some carry.

With some things yes. But not all.

Yeah none of those kids should have cell phones. They should be about old enough to drive before they get one even.

Our schools have banned phones. They need to have the right to destroy phones

So does a kid snapping and shooting up the school, but it doesn’t mean we ignore guns.

Yes, but it’s also new territory for us as a species. I’m sure the guidance and monitors will be significantly improved in the next decade, but a decade ago… It was the wild west, baby.

What a great way to dismiss an entire problems based that affects our society. It’s easier to just hand wave it away as someone else’s problem than to actually consider it…

When a problem becomes systematic it’s now a societal and cultural problem and not an individual responsibility problem. Individual responsibility isn’t working so it’s now down to the society this is occurring in to solve the systematic problem in a systematic way.

That’s how almost everything works

You’re both right
