It seems like France stands out among terrorist attacks in the news. Is it because they are more likely to be critical of Muslim culture than other European nations? Is it because there is a security failure allowing terrorist to come in and organize better?

    I think it’s important to understand why these people are mad. It’s really simplistic to say ‘raise better kids’, and the point of teaching people not to hurt is a bit tricky when positioned in a world where people are being hurt constantly.

    Any good person raised in an environment where their own country is murdering children is going to have questions. You feel helpless when the whole world is comfortable with inhumane torture.

    The problem that needs fixing is much much wider.

      I didnt’ really have room to write more about what the term “raise better kids” would entail, but obviously ti would mean getting to the root of why these people are mad. That’s why I mentioned the need for mental counseling, which is sorely needed in a world where parents don’t bother to find out why their kids are upset and don’t or won’t see the red flags in front of them.

      Yes the problem is much wider than this limited space can give a voice to. But you won’t solve the problems of the world by trying to throw one size fits all solutions onto the situation and attempting to look at the forest but not the trees. You can’t conquer a global problem by a global solution, it requires one on one kind of treatment, and has to start at home or in school.
