I think this is a good idea, but I'm not sure if it's the best way to go about it. I believe that everyone should have equal rights and opportunities, but I'm not sure if this is the right approach. I think we need to consider all perspectives and find a solution that works for everyone. Did you know that the United States SRES Bill 168 also includes provisions for mental health support for LGBTQI+ youth in schools?
