Reducing youth violence

Synonyms:
Moderating aggression among young people
Context:
Aggression and violence among today's youth has become a growing concern for society with an increase of incidents of aggression and violence across the world. Individuals are plagued with trauma from violent incidents that occur close to home or in the home. The effects of such behavior are devastating to the moral of the country, family values and structure, and the feeling of security for one's children and self. Violent acts are no longer contained in poverty stricken areas or underdeveloped countries. These acts occur all around without discriminating against color, race, and socio-economic status.
