As a parent, I want to feel safe, leaving my kids at school for the day. We always need to be vigilant to prevent this kind of thing.jguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14348265888878239823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4656908554946621165.post-73798894209853175362009-08-30T17:43:18.627-04:002009-08-30T17:43:18.627-04:00Your story was very interesting.Your story was very interesting.Teacher Knows Besthttp://www.teacherknowsbest.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4656908554946621165.post-47283127713645371162009-08-22T17:27:36.782-04:002009-08-22T17:27:36.782-04:00Over in Virginia Beach a couple of guys are charge...Over in Virginia Beach a couple of guys are charged with trying to blow up the school.

I thank you for sharing your emotions, your thoughts, and your strength. Your compassion for not only the victims, but the relatives of the young man who will be incarcerated for life, exemplify the wonderful teacher and person you are.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04183487919770201602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4656908554946621165.post-36861735368806572932009-08-22T09:12:38.727-04:002009-08-22T09:12:38.727-04:00Very moving piece, Cindi.

One cowered in the library for hours after the massacre was over. My friend's biggest fear is that the community moved too quickly to "get over" the tragedy, wanted to get back to normal without fully analyzing just what happened. Thanks for sharing your awareness of the factors that make school shootings possible--and noting that being in a shooting situation changes people.Nancy Flanaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00047575960944913289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4656908554946621165.post-10299047395775825462009-08-22T00:17:09.696-04:002009-08-22T00:17:09.696-04:00This is well written and a sober reflection.
