So you need the services defined now? Reporting abuse is required by law. That’s not some extra service they’re providing that a parent can opt out of. “Please don’t listen to my kid when he says I raped him” isn’t what’s happening as a result of this law.

Y’all are so dumb. Just ignoring what the law says. Counseling and guidance SERVICE is opted out. They can’t provide their own opinions on matters to the student but they can escalate as needed when approached regarding abuse. Ffs.
I guarantee you a parent will interpret that as seeing a counselor and will push the issue. The bill’s language is vague enough to allow that.

Because it certainly won’t be a teacher, Administator, or counselor with the child’s best interest at heart.
Even if, and it is a massive if, the student is completely barred from speaking to the counselor, both administrators and teachers are obligated to report abuse.
Obligated.
If they have the child’s best interest at heart, they would have zero issues reporting.
They can even go to the guidance counselor and ask for assistance with reporting, although it isn’t hard to do.

What is going to stop a kid from walking up to a counselor and telling them something?
Nothing. Just progs being progs. Manipulating, stating things factually incorrect and being protective of tParty.

Here's the scenario I'm guessing Pride and Belle are focused on -
A 6 year old tells the teacher he wants to talk to the counselor but doesn't tell her why. He wants to talk about dad hitting him. The counselor checks his records and sees his parent opted out, and can't meet with him. So the boy keeps it in and doesn't get help.
Now, maybe the boy tells someone else anyway. Maybe the teacher. Maybe the counselor meets with him but can't provide guidance, and can only hear him out, and the reporting duty is triggered all the same.
I get the narrow concern here, as unrealistic as I think it largely is. But again, my question is how do you let healthy families opt out from having their adolescent talk to someone you don't think has any business guiding your child, without this being a ramification? I'm all ears.
And, I'd note that if the entire community hadn't become obsessed with gender and sexuality issues, and universally and uniformly demonized parents who disagree with their profession's activist positions, this wouldn't be an issue. "Sure, we've completely corrupted ourselves, but by you trying to keep that away from your children you're going to leave us unable to get help for abused kids!" It's parenting blackmail, and that's intentional.

Oh shite. Some parent will push it so it's gotta be a bad law.

Then let him push the issue with all the other problems he’ll be dealing with if he’s been reported for abuse. That’s his problem. Try and fight in court against a school admin who said he was told about abuse. Every state has a law requiring that report regardless of how it’s obtained.

Again, vague language of the law.
Schools may have to report their guidance services (seeing a counselor for any reason) as a “service” to CYA on this bill. If a parent says no I don’t want my child to see the counselor, then that counselor opens themselves up to whatever mechanisms are in the bill to address them acting against consent if a child asks to see them.
Not the same as a kid randomly walking up and saying I’m being abused (which generally doesn’t happen).
I’ve seen school staff gone after for less and sued.

Reporting o go abuse isn’t a service, it’s a requirement.

You’re correct. I just don’t think it’s as unrealistic given experience of working in a school and now a therapist.
Another scenario could be a teacher notices changes in a kid’s behavior and wants to report them to a school counselor for further investigation. But the parent has opt-ed out. The teacher doesn’t have enough on behavior change alone to file a CHFS report. That kid then falls through the cracks.
Posted on 4/21/22 at 9:54 am to ell_13
The argument being made against this section of the law has morphed into a debate whether “a counselor listening to a child referred to them or a child that approaches them to discuss abuse” is considered a service.
I argue it’s not, it’s an obligation a parent cannot opt out of.

I honestly think even progs understand deep inside. I think they're as traumatized watching their icons fall as anyone. They just find it hard to believe such icons as Hollywood actors, Disney corp, and our sacred "essential" school teachers who braved death during a pandemic, can make terrible judgment errors. They choose to ride with the team even though they can see the cracks.

And I think it is. The child is much more likely to approach the teacher they see every day, not a counselor who they may not even know. And they're more likely to approach a family member or family friend over the teacher.
We're talking K-3 here, not high school students who know what a counselor is.
