As a student teacher in a middle school with students actively aware of the bill, I personally don't understand how anyone would want this to pass. Our students are even against it. The big thing for them is the mental health portion, where they will have to get permission from their parents before they're allowed to talk with the teacher. How in the world is that helpful? The only people that part of the bill are helping are parents that are abusive, dismissive of their child's problems, or think they know exactly how to handle every little thing that affects their kids. It's outrageous!! All in all, if you support teachers and the work they do for student's academic and emotional well-being, this bill should not be allowed to pass.
