Not what I said. I said people need to care. Lots of ways to show you care about a action or behavior. As a society we let the "professionals" or the "system"  take care of the problem. We pay them to do it. We get mad when nothing happens yet we don't do anything to change it.
A community can show they care about what happens to kids BEFORE they end up shooting an innocent citizen.  We know the kids or families who are having problems but unless if personally affects us, what do we do ?
I raised 6 children and had 73 foster kids. I believe in setting boundaries, consequences, restitution, community work service and facing the victim and hearing how the perp's action impacted their life. 
I was often frustrated by the "system" that let kids down. If you don't care enough to follow through with what you say will happen then the kids figure you don't care about what happens to them.
I think there are some great programs, like the old Alaska Youth Challenge Corps, Big Brother/Big Sisters
