"Working with them" got us multiple federal gun control acts, and thousands of state/local laws.
It never stops them.
Only encourages.
As for suggestions, I've seen several here.
Go back to stressing importance of families.
Teach discipline/responsibility.
As for "not enough money" in schools.
Well, maybe that's cause we blow all our tax money on everything else.
The responsiblity angle is not going to work.
That is counter to the "new slavery" of this century.
