I think your caveat is a major point. I appreciate the drive to hold these schools accountable for student safety, but I just think that it would, in essence, just make things harder for victims who are trying to speak out. School authorities might be even more reluctant to take safety concerns seriously, or might…

I get (but don't necessarily agree with) your point, but people can't go back in time and un-have children who are already here. As such, they need to take care of these children, and a livable wage will help them do so.

Sorry to be THAT person but,

It's fine that you can lose someone important to you and move on. It's even admirable.
