"As an educator, I think that the student-counselor ratio should be smaller- meaning that there should be more counselors in schools, more counselors available for mental health counseling for every student in the country. It should be mandatory that schools have enough counselors dedicated to students' mental health."
"Include counseling for mental health in health care. Have more physical education to give kids more cardio to counter the stress, get their bodies moving, and have focus on individual goals and team goals. Switch school hours to start later to help each child get a better nights rest."
"I think it would benefit everyone if they had a little LESS self-esteem. The idea that you have to be “great, awesome, you can do it” can lead many to feel frustrated when they aren’t great, awesome, and fall short of their goals. We need to start teaching the reality that human beings are complicated and sometimes we do things we wish we wouldn’t do, instead of acting like there’s some perfect goal we’re supposed to attain in ourselves. Schools keep telling kids they can achieve their dreams and do anything they want, which sounds positive. But, it’s a false truth: it might be better to just teach hard work ethics with the reality that we make mistakes or teach and (at least suggest) have conversations about the very real possibility that humans don’t always do good."
"As a student, I would have to say the biggest mental health crisis is assignment related stress. Young people are always stressed about what the future holds and what they need to do to get the best possible outcome since getting into a good college is so competitive today. The best way to help relieve that stress is to make a plan, because when there is a plan a lot of that uncertainty related stress vanishes. School counselors should have meetings with incoming freshmen to discuss their future goals and what they want to do with their life. Then they should make a rough schedule for their whole 4 years of high school so that they are on track to have the best chance at the future that they want."
