"The root cause of violence is traumatic events. Hurt people hurt people. When a male is being violent to another male, one thing we know about him is that somewhere in his life he had a profound victimization that he has not healed from."
"We need to make sure every boy is connected to someone, an adult teacher or mentor. A strong connection to parents and school is crucial."
