Mental Health awareness at schools.

The Issue

Mental Illness is still a "taboo subject" in society. It is more understood and spoke about than before but the awareness of it is still shockingly low. I am creating this petition in the hopes that other people agree with me on the solution to this problem. (Kids to be taught about Mental Health in schools.) Schools already teach Sex Education at a young age so why not? There are also cases everywhere where kids suffer from Mental Illnesses but they do not know it (unless it is noticed by parents or if they are diagnosed in later life) because they do not know the signs and symptoms. Mental Illness is a real and serious problem. Please help fight Mental Illness and better the quality of life for all people suffering. Thank you for reading.
