Very important thoughts here. Thank you. I am a retired occupational therapist and just want to say that when SEL first started in schools, at least as I practiced it, it was NOT creating victims but rather helping children have a language for their feelings. Unintended consequences of SEL are horrifying to me.

I have to disagree. Anecdotal evidence suggests that “counselors” are not infrequently damaged to begin with, and are further damaged by the “educational” process that indoctrinates them into believing in things nobody should. To let them “help” kids in a school setting is asking for trouble. It’s bad enough kids are left alone with 21st century “educators.”
