You've computed, incorrectly but that's not relevant here, P(his kid dies in a school shooting).

What you should have computed is P(his kid dies in a school shooting|rumor of shooting threat at school that enough people believe that they are leaving the school).

I'm not good enough at maths to do that, maybe you could fill us in? :)
