Add a nationally mandated mental health class to every American school curriculum from preschool through 12th grade.
Why is this important?
Physical education has long been a part of the standard American school curriculum. Why not mental health? Why not educate children from a young age about their mind and feelings, how they work, and how to manage them? We must break the stigma against maintaining our mental health or asking for help in this area if we need it. What good is a healthy body without a healthy mind?
