VIOLENCE

All material is from Internet. 
TEDTalks is a daily video podcast of the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world's leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes (or less).

This is Sue Klebold. Her son was the shooter Dylan Klebold, one of the two shooters who committed the Columbine High School massacre, murdering 12 students and a teacher. She's spent years excavating every detail of her family life, trying to understand what she could have done to prevent her son's violence.

 A call for World Peace in PEACE TODAY music by Faith Rivera.
Lyrics
Peace is the promise I make today
There's nothing greater for me to say
Than to lay down my fears
 Lay down unhappiness
And surrender to
The peace I choose today
Peace is the gift that I give today
No easy shortcut,
Peace is the way
I will lay down my pride
Lay down self-righteousness
And surrender to
The peace I choose today
My all, I give My love for all
Peace is the reason we're here today
No accident, we've been by name
Called to lay down our lives
Stand up for greater good
 And surrender to the peace we choose today
 Peace, we choose - today
 Peace, we bring - today
 Peace, we live oh-today
Peace today

Violence in Stories




Grimm’s Fairy Tales 



The stories Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Hansel and Gretel, Snow White and some others are full of violence. Now there are countless adaptations and new filmmakers and novelists continue to rework them.
They are tales of right and wrong. There are clear morals to be drawn – deception and dishonesty are punished; honest hard work is rewarded; promises must be honored; beware of strangers – and especially the forest. 

Good triumphs over evil and the bad is punished. There are clear choices. “There is good and there is bad and you know what’s good and what’s bad and there’s no question about it. And that’s very understandable for children. It’s very clear, and good always wins.
