             Aggressive Behavior in Children Today; Are We Safe?
             Aggressive behavior can alter the lives of many, it is evidenced by the horrific stories that propagate the media. Children randomly shooting in schools, fired workers retaliating on their previous place of employment, damaging property or even committing acts of violence not to mention " road- rage," a term coined after certain individuals would resort to reckless driving tactics when frustrated behind the wheel, the lists goes on and on. Nevertheless, determining how these acts can be reduced and ideally eliminated, several factors should be taken into consideration. Initially, a parent's attitude toward a child's behavior has a significant impact on how a child develops his/her own coping skills. Effects of parental involvement and monitoring of a child's activities often times define how a child interacts with others. Parents who enforce certain rules and encourage communication while providing appropriate feedback have lower instances of aggressive behavior conversely, a child of a parent who has very little parental supervision has more incidences of aggression toward others. What is more, a child's perception of his/her parent's view towards an encroachment drives behavior, whether it is positive or negative. Nurturing the parent-child relationship through active participation, guidance, and other options than acts of violence for problem resolution spans the gap of communication. Ultimately, by investigating the various views on parental interaction, hormonal influences, and the biology of the brain, demonstrate significance in developing alternate solutions for coping with stressful situations to prevent aggressive behavior that threatens our safety, such as, violence prevention programs, social awareness and or drug therapy.
