[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was shocked to see such cold and uncaring comments from a school counselor.  If my child were at his school, that discussion would have destroyed any faith I might have had in their counseling services.

On the other hand, the other school counselor who joined in with is a wonderful person and counselor (based on professional interactions outside of AEM), and I was glad she joined in to offer constructive comments.[/quote]

I'm curious to know what was cold and uncaring? He is grieving the loss of a co-worker, terrified to go back and is told to go back or quit. Perhaps I misse it.[/quote]

Further down the chain, a parent writes in some detail about her son's issues and the lack of help he received from the school staff and the guy just straight up says he disagrees and dismisses her experience. [/quote]

+1.  I was shocked to see that.  I also was surprised to see him say kids should just go elsewhere.  Not only are there to cost barriers another person mentioned, but the at also relies on parents recognizing that their kids need help and being willing and able to make it happen.  A 12 yo who’s struggling with depression can’t just get help on her own.[/quote]
