Gosh, I wish this was implemented when I was in school. I had no idea I was depressed. I thought I had some sort of neurological problem; therefore, my depression was untreated for several years. Had I been diagnosed like I should've been, I probably wouldn't have failed those 4 classes my senior year. I don't understand why people are against it.
Whatever is going on outside of a student's life is way more important than some lesson that you're trying to shove down their throats.

Im sorry for what you went through but you seriously need to wake up and smell the coffee .....this government will have all of our kids being robots instead of individuals thinking for themselves .
I don't think it's a bad idea, and I think you're far-fetching with the gun thing. Screening mental health in students (like how they currently screen students' vision and hearing) would be great.
The BMI requirement makes no sense, although they did weigh us annually at both my private grade school AND my public high school.

Um, they already train us to be robots and if we don't conform to their idea then we're bigoted losers with awful parents. I'm coming from a place where I could've really benefited from an exam. Whereas, y'all are worried about the government having your "private" information, which really isn't private to begin with because it is easily attainable.
NEWSFLASH: The government has access to your health records and diagnoses. They already know what you've been diagnosed with. And with the way we treat social media, they can locate who you are through your social media accounts after you talked about it to someone else.
I wonder if forcing pills that are harmful or fake is part of Obamacare? It would be interesting to know how much Obama got paid by Big Pharma to do whatever they want.
I could just about imagine a book for teachers 101 reasons to medicate kids (against the wishes of kids & parents). If kids refuse, I wonder if they could be forced into psych wards? Might they force meds on all as a precaution? Another $500 billion for the harmaceuticals companies? Maybe the police come in to help the teacher by handcuffing students to their desks? Maybe they could give pills to make the kids hyperactive, as an excuse to taser them (the new form of electro shock treatment)? A police officer ready to shoot, in every classroom? Just have the Federal Reserve print up $900 trillion for this?
Dozens of police out in the schoolyard during recess, or cancel recess if too expensive to do this. Or barbed wire electrified fences around all schooyards. How much cost for super security? They could use drones to shoot any unknown person on school grounds as they might be 10% as mentally ill & dangerous as some in our govt seem to be.
Lying govt people claiming 100% of kids are mentally ill? Could what goes on in the classrooms be kept a secret? A locked door for every classroom with students always locked in, plus the police officer in each classroom, testing them all for the presence of "marijuana" which the kids must not have as it would make them non-violent if anything could, & chaos is what govt usually wants. Plus all money going to harmaceuticals cos. Fake depression pills that make kids more suicidal & homicidal? Huge #s of kids on these already & harmaceuticals cos admitted they can cause more suicides.
Just worst cause scenarios. No way to know. Maybe they start out minimally & keep building this up.
Best wishes, all.

Of course, that also allows the various "professionals" to use that opportunity to badger Johnny and Suzie about their parents' activities, safety precautions, and.....ta-da.....guns in the home. After which a file will be maintained on Johnny, who acts like Tom Sawyer and so, therefore, will be medicated at school by people practicing medicine without a license, and won't be allowed to go hunting with dad.
Yet another reason to send kids to private schools.
Crazy bills are introduced all the time and virtually none of them pass. Y'all are getting worked up and dreaming up conspiracy theories over nothing. If you live where this yahoo operates call up your congressmen, express your displeasure and keep it moving.
