Peoples Republik of Illinois Usurps Parental Rights

Families are furious in Illinois after discovering that the state will screen all children from birth to age 18 for mental health. The passage of the 2003 Children’s Mental Health Act in Illinois created the Illinois Children’s Mental Health Partnership (ICMHP).

The New Freedom Commission on Mental Health (NFCMH), designed by President George W. Bush, sparked the Illinois version. It passed nearly unanimously in the state legislature in 2003 with the purpose of ensuring “appropriate and culturally relevant assessment of young children’s social and emotional development with the use of standardized tools.”

Along with routine mental assessments in all mandated school exams, children’s scores will be stored on an electric scorecard to track information on each child and their social-emotional development. Any child who is not found in good mental standing may be prescribed psychotropic drugs.
