What could have prevented the Columbine High School shootings in 1999?

I am a college student majoring in education and wonder what I could do to help students to overcome anger or any classroom managment problems.

What could have prevented the Columbine High School shootings in 1999?
The key to preventing the Columbine shootings would have been if the parents of Klebold and Harris had paid attention to the boys. There were numerous clues as to what they were planning, and the parents ignored and/or minimized those clues. People were telling them that the boys were making threats, and the parents didn't seem to care.





The journal from the father of one of the murderers was released this week. In that journal, the father tells of the people that came to him with concerns over his son. He refused to believe that the people were telling the truth, and refused to look further into the issue.





The boys were at their homes making bombs, and the parents didn't notice? Unbelievable. The parents just didn't want to admit that the boys had mental problems and needed help.
Reply:in New York we have and use metal detectors. Report It

Reply:I don't think anything could have as far as I know, they sound really psycho, if they parents knew cuz I guess they didn't. It was anger maybe, but they were really really psycho and into that kinda thing. Maybe stay away from that, violence?
Reply:Good parenting
Reply:The bad kids could have got hit by a car on the way to school. I think that's the only thing that would have stopped that from happening.
