Make mental health days official in the education system
I would like there to be official mental health days within the school system, it's important for developing children's mental health as school is a lot of constant pressure and it's good for children to have a break, I impose a day or two every month for this cause.

Background
Having mental health days could and would positively impact children's and teenagers mental health drastically, and even save students lives. It's important to protect the youth, mental health days should be a thing, children need and deserve time to themselves to take a break, wind down, relax, go outside, catch up on sleep and have a happy body and healthy mind.
