Need to stop crimes against children
The lack of resources and credibility the US puts into mental health needs to change. It needs to be made vitally important, along with Gun law changes for our children to really become safe.
Why is this important?
I believe if we can put all of the resources we have into making counseling a priority and treat it just as important as medical medicine. More families can be helped, which will help more children and then less crimes. The salaries of these professional are seriously poor. Due to that, there is a large turn over, which is damaging to some one receiving treatment. Because of the insurance coverage,often families rather not seek the help and if they need a psychologist that specializes, only the rich can afford them. I am a witness to all of this first hand.
