Safety concerns push University of Colorado students to request alternative class attendance options.

This is the world we live in, and these aren’t the only students recently impacted by real threats. We unfortunately hear about it somewhere every single day.

Including today. Two staff are in the hospital after being shot by a student earlier this morning at East High School in Denver, Colorado.

And what mental health follow up do the schools have in place??? There was an article last week reporting that 125 of 180 Colorado schools have no mental health professionals on staff.

Lovely.

I’m extremely impressed with the steps the University of Colorado students are taking, but it’s not their responsibility! We need to do better, Colorado.And we need to do better, World. Period.

On today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss the rights of ALL students. Of ALL ages. In ALL states.

I also discuss simple questions to ask your children to get conversations started. Thank you Kelly Clarkson for taking your very private situation and using your public platforms to raise awareness.
