Why should gun violence be taught in schools

answer:

gun-related injuries and deaths among children occur at disproportionately high rates in the united states. children who live in homes with guns are the most likely victims. this study describes teachers' views on whether gun safety should be taught to children in the preschool and elementary years. methods: a total of 150 survey questionnaires were distributed to public and private school teachers in preschools and elementary schools in 2 counties of a midwestern state. results: in total, 62% of the 102 respondents indicated that they favored the teaching of gun safety, while 13% disapproved and 25% had no opinion. overall, 28.4% of the respondents supported the teaching of gun safety in grades pre-k (pre-kindergarten) through first grade. about 54% indicated that police or trained military personnel should do the teaching of this subject in schools, while 6.9% suggested that teachers should do the teaching. conclusion: with a majority of the teachers in favor of teaching gun safety in the schools, a larger study should be conducted that explores the introduction of gun safety into the curriculum in preschool through grade 6. such a study should evaluate the efficacy of teaching gun safety as a measure to prevent gun violence and injuries involving guns.
