As parents, we know what our children are capable of long before it happens.  

The problem is you can't legislate better parenting. At least not directly (there are indirect ways to make people less stressed/overworked/financially imperiled which would naturally improve parenting). So, from a government standpoint, the options would be 1. do nothing or 2. do something that is not helpful (if we accept the premise that better parenting is the solution).

I don't buy the premise though, because it would infer that parents of other countries are inherently better than American parents, since mass shootings, especially at schools, just do not happen in other countries the way they do in America.
