15. agreed-- turf war
Counsling is one thing, and mandatory mental health testing for all school children is another (as is being introduced in Illinois--probably thanks to drug company lobby). Keep in mind that it is the pharmaceutical company agenda to label every type of different personality as a "disorder" that should be treated with drugs. I am guessing that they think counseling will lead to suggestions to go to child psychologists, which will lead to over medicating, which will lead to...............who knows? Most of the school shooters have been on antidepressants, don't forget. Plus there are the recent stories about coverups by drug companies of untoward effects of SSRIs on children. I am not a fan of scientology, but there sure is a reason to be wary of the path that leads to irresponsible medicating of children.
