Reply to "Information and tips wanted in starting an ace-survey in schools in the Netherlands"

Hi everyone who posted here. After our first Trauma-Informed school meeting where we presented the basics, we discussed doing the ACEs screening so I am curious about this as well. We were a little concerned because  what if the student (older student) answers yes to some of these ---- parents may become very angry because schools are mandated reporters and how does one get around this problem.  When counselors first came into the school districts here, kids who were having problems were automatically sent there, then there was huge outrage because kids were telling about family members who were abusing them and this was disrupting the families.  I think it is good that kids were letting the counselors know what was happening to them. But the policy got changed such that kids would only be able to see the counselor if parents opted in for that service.  Thanks
