Why We Learn About This
Learning about sad events like this helps us understand how important it is to be kind and peaceful. It shows us that when people make very bad choices, it hurts so many others. It's important to remember that violence is never the answer and that we should always try to solve problems with talking and understanding, not by hurting others.
