Government to mandate that schools teach Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and or Dialectical Behavioural Therapy to give our children the skills they need to deal with modern life and the challenges of social media.

Evidence suggests that we are in a mental health crisis that is only going to get worse. Poor mental health is the root cause to many problems we have in modern society.

Many ailments today are directly linked to poor mental health yet we are taught nothing in school about how to help ourselves: prevention is better than cure so we should start young.
