[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 512050, member: 1967"] That's fascinating, Nancy. I don't know if I agree with all of it, though. I don't have the expertise to diagnose whether a child is mentally ill and I certainly don't have the time or inclination to start reading my students' facebook pages. Who exactly would be in charge of keeping up with the social media? Our counselors have case loads of over 500 students. I do know that in cases where an administrator took disciplinary action on something that a student posted on facebook, the parents started screaming that the school had no right to use facebook postings since they were not made at school. I also think that going over the parents' heads would stir up a hornet's nest. I don't know what the right answer is and you certainly had a great question about who would pay for the care these kids would need once they are identified. It's all very troubling. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
