A Violence-Free School
Nearly every high school has issues with fights at one point or another. But not all of them find a solution as effective as the one at this Louisiana school. After 23 students were arrested for fighting over only a three-day span, some fathers in the community decided to take matters into their own hands.
By forming what they call the “Dads on Duty,” a group of 40 fathers eliminated instances of fighting to zero. Their method was to take turns patrolling the school and ensuring that nothing got out of hand. It’s amazing to see men breaking the violent cycle of toxic masculinity and teaching future generations how to behave like real men!
