Similarly, school security procedures and measures currently in place are not effective in preventing violence.

It wasn 't all that long ago that most families lived and worked on a farm. When the demands of farming were particularly intense, such as during planting and harvesting, schools shut down so that the children could help with the work load. This still influences modern school schedules, many of which have a spring break and a summer break even though most children are not working the land with their families during that time. The modern world can foster a profound sense of disconnectedness and children in particular can suffer from a sense of meaninglessness.
