It would be a terrible thing to go through. But remember, a child is an individual, who may not share issues they are going through and may not show easily identifiable signs. And even if they do, a well-meaning and good parent may make mistakes and not properly address those issues, not out of malice or negligence but an ignorance that they arent qualified to identify or address themselves. A good parent may not know that their child is being bullied at school or the true extent of the bullying etc. or may not realize what content their child is consuming online. Should parents monitor 100% of said content? Maybe, thats debatable, but even if so should it be a criminal offense to miss something? As humans its easy to want there to be easily identifiable root causes to these issues that we can be confident that if we take the right steps, they could be prevented 100% of the time. But thats just not how human beings work. How one person/child copes with trauma will differ from one another, and how much trauma one can withstand will differ, and the signs will differ, and the solutions will differ. Parents can do a lot and they have a responsibility to do a lot, but there isnt going to be an end-all be-all math equation thats going to tell you how to 100% surefire prevent another person from committing a tragedy against themselves or others.

Its natural to feel a certain way about things such as these. Im glad you still acknowledge it may be irrational.

You can influence your children, but you cannot 100% control them. Especially once they are adults, but Id argue even before that as well. I think that parents should be held harshly liable if they criminally abetted the shooting in any way, such as failure to follow their state laws and regulations regarding proper storage of a firearm that led to easy access for the shooter etc. But if the parents followed the law and did not negligently or willingly aid the shooter in any way, I dont see why they should be held liable. At a certain point, an individual is responsible for their own actions no matter how shitty their parents are. Some kids are just fucked up. I have no doubts that some school shooters had better parents than a lot of people in this very thread, and their decision to do what they did had more to do with other outside influences (such as being bullied or getting radicalized in an online space) or mental disorders.
