Something in America is terribly broken. All we have to do is look back to the senseless massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School to know that people have the potential to do the evilest of acts. Everything the American government and its citizens have done to stop gun violence has proved to be ineffectual. Gun crimes still occur every day all over America, and no one is safe. In Listen, America Gun and Teen Violence Go Back To The Cradle, Lucy Ogboso-Anya looks to the past for ways to help America in the future. In many mass shootings, the "lone wolf" gunmen had childhoods without the strong, guiding hand of parents and adult role models. Based on this information, the author examines how the parents of violent shooters may have unintentionally instilled bad values in their children; uses these incidents to show what good parenting should be; provides advice for parents, with worksheets to evaluate parenting style; and shows how children are the key to a nonviolent future. We have failed to stop so many violent crimes, but it is never too late to look for solutions to help the next generation.
