Be aware of the word "mandatory" here. Do you feel comfortable with that in a supposedly free society?

This is not, to me, about mental illness but about what is considered "wellness".

We are supposed to be in a system where the assumption is: innocent until proven guilty. That would apply to drug testing, also.

I feel that any mental problems should be self-evident to a well-trained and skilled educator. At that point, a child's behavior will indicate if intervention is prudent.

Does that make sense? Should people be forced to submit to testing? What other Draconian measures would then follow? How much should we be compelled to do?

Whow is watching the watchers? Who is policing the police? That is the qustion.
