School violence does not always
involve a shooting or a knife. It can be verbal, alcoholic, drug-related, or a
sexual assault. This page is designed to address those issues where violence is mainly focused against one student, even
when the antagonist is a group of students or a
single student.
Schoolyard bullying usually leads to
confrontations that appear more and more on my list
when the bullied student strikes back against his/her attacker with a
weapon. Hopefully, the following link can help the bully, the bullied, the school, and the parents of each student to
put an end to schoolyard bullying.

Teenagers often experiment with
alcohol at parties, and the results are almost always disastrous. However,
there are times when the students are doing everything right, when a drunk
driver (whether it be an adult or another student) slams into them and ends
their young lives. Those can be the hardest deaths to accept, knowing that
your child was in the right and somebody else made a
terrible decision to drink and drive. Hopefully, the following few links
can help students, parents, and the school to ensure everyone is educated on the
dangers of drinking and driving.

Teenagers often experiment with
drugs as well, even mixing them with alcohol at the aforementioned parties. The results, once again, are almost always
disastrous. What's worse is that some of the teenagers are buying their drugs
from adults. Illegal drug makers are always improving the potency of their drugs, and the teens are all too eager to show
their coolness by smoking a joint or popping a pill. Hopefully, the
following few links can help students, parents, and the school to ensure
everyone is educated on the dangers of
illegal drugs. (Add to that prescription drugs that teens sometimes give
to their friends, even though that friend may have a fatal allergic reaction to
the drug. And overdosing on over-the-counter drugs.)

Teenagers often become sexually active before their parents
are ready for them to accept the fact that their children are
maturing. That's not to say that teens always make the right choice when
it comes to sexual activity. But the sexual activity I'm talking about
here is the one that is forced upon the
teen through assault, abuse, and
rape. Some sick bastard out there created a drug
(Rohypnol) that can be slipped into a
drink where it dissolves completely and causes the drinker to lose consciousness completely. During this
time, the drinker is usually sexually assaulted or raped by the person who put
the drug into the drink in the first place. Date rape is also known to
happen this way. Hopefully, the following few links can help the students,
parents, and the school to ensure that all are
educated on the dangers of forced sexual
activity.
