Love the idea of this BUT…..


I snapped this picture today (Ian was driving & I was a passenger) of the Valley Park Middle School sign at Don Mills & Overlea. I love that it offers kids help but they are assuming that kids would be walking by because while sitting in front of this sign at a red light the actual hot line phone number is hidden by the trees!🤦‍♀️


This made me think (as well as place a call to the school..you know me) that I know parents have been having a tough time balancing online schooling on top of working from home during this pandemic but kids are suffering too. I wanted to post the kids hotline number here for everyone to like and please share. The kids are our future!! Kids can text 686868 anytime and they can get the support they need. They can also visit https://kidshelpphone.ca/. Kids can also call 1-800-668-6868❤️

Adults, you are important too so check out this site which provides all kinds of resources, phone numbers and links to sites if you are in crisis https://www.toronto.ca/311/knowledgebase/kb/docs/articles/311-toronto/information-and-business-development/crisis-lines-suicide-depression-telephone-support-lines-non-crisis-mental-health-services.html💕
Be safe everyone. 😃
