While trends are interesting, how would you like this information to be applied?
Here are some of my own personal thoughts:
-Provide greater assistance to single parents through the welfare systems in order to allow single parents to spend more time with their children
-Provide increased funding for single parents to be able to utilize institutions which aid in parenting such as daycare and pre-school (which means increasing funding for these institutions in low income areas)
-Provide increased funding for sexual education in public high schools
-Provide increased funding for birth control distribution
-Increase maternity/paternity leave, to allow single parents a clean transition back into the workplace
-Improve the systems for handling out of control children within the school system (this is to help children who start straying from the path early, no matter the cause, and also as a bit of a segue to point out another facet of the problem: school discipline)
And address other contributors to the problem of mass shootings, as no single solution will entirely solve the problem.
