As another heavy week winds down, following an elementary school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, you might be experiencing some pretty loaded emotions.

Are you a parent, feeling sickened by yet another massacre at a school? Can you not stand to think about the unimaginable -- what school will be next? What if it were your family? Are you an activist, hoping this might be the incident that finally spurs change, and leads to some sort of gun control? Are you a teacher, worried about your own classroom? Or are you thinking of even more solutions, wondering what could feasibly be done that would actually make a difference?
