2. It is a serious problem, specially in public schools. It involves many faces like, gang activity, locker thefts, bullying and intimidation, gun use, assault—just about anything that produces a victim. Violence is perpetrated against students, teachers, and staff, and ranges from intentional vendettas to accidental killings of bystanders. Often, discussions of school violence are lumped together with discussions of school discipline generally, as both involve questions of how to maintain order in a school.

3. School violence is a subset of youth violence, a broader public health problem. It refers to harmful behaviors that may start early and continue into young adulthood. Victims can suffer serious injury, significant social and emotional damdage, or even death. The young person can be a victim, an offender, or a witness to the violence or a combination of these.

4. It is not easy to understand. Ther is no single reason why students become violent. Some are just following behavior they've seen at home, on the streets, or in video games, movies, or television. Sometimes, people who turn violent are victims of teasing who've hit a limit and feel like they would do anything to make it stop. They may feel isolated and rejected by their peers. These are only a couple of the reasons why a person may become violent.

5. Causes: One of the main factors is the young generation’s exposure to violence. They are exposure in many ways, such as, at an early age, family altercations, watching TV or DVD’s. Children assimilate violence in form of entertainment.

6. Young and vulnerable minds come away from the screen believing that power justifies all. Many begin imitiating their screen hero by intensifying their desire to live ranging. Teen anger is a popular theme in contemporary media. Another factor is the lack of parental attention in many homes.

8. Parents can maintain an honest and supportive relationship with their children. Also, parents need to look more interested in friends, television, or other activities, they need to keep in touch with them. They should know where they are going, with whom and when they will be returning. In some cases, they feel that they do not have to divulge this information; but they like to know that they are loved, and parents care about them.

9. Parents need to support all school efforts at educating children about violence. Working with them with strategies, teaching them how to defuse anger in peer groups can also help. Those strategies will be an essential part of a child’s education. It means that parents need to be proactive about the emotional temperature of our adolescents.

10. They are divided into three classes: Measures related to school management (related to discipline and punishment). Measures related to enviromental modifications (video camaras, security guards, and uniforms). Educational and curriculum-based measures (conflict-resolution and gang-prevention programs).

11. The general conclusion is to encourage innovation and experimentation in schoolc through decentralization and deregulation.
