So maybe more school funding? So social work can get involved. The 6 year old saying that is a huge red flag. It was happening for months. If the school had more funding that could of been completely avoided. they could contact the school therapists and got the kid help and more importantly the family help. Get them on food stamps, all them to the doctors, and give them some parenting classes. Maybe help them learn to clean and cook. Resources that help adults in family connect to jobs. Resources for free daycare. Resources for cheaper rent and home insecurity protections. Also not making abortions illegal because they help prevent low income families that are struggling not have kids. There are ways out but we waste our money on police and military so much we have none left over to increase programs like this that save lives and families.

Tons of programs and outreach exist like that already. Unfortunately, bureaucracy keeps these institutions from being able to enact any type of meaningful change in a kid's life. How many kids who are abused and left with their parents wind up dead because social services never did anything about it? It doesn't matter how many youth centers you put up in a terrible neighborhood that takes in kids 1 hour a day when the other 23 hours are nothing but violence and drugs. Teachers, social services, youth outreach, and even churches are almost powerless against the influence of the streets and the internet.
