I agree to an extent, however without the legislation those teachers wouldn’t be subject to any form repercussions because they wouldn’t be breaking any rules. I’d argue that if a teacher’s career is at risk for doing so, the odds of them outing a kid would decrease significantly.

One potential outcome without the legislation that I’d be worried about is that if a student did harm themselves their parents may try to hold the teacher or school responsible for not telling them even if there were no warning signs.
