Need for student counselling centres in schools

After family, school plays the most important role in the process of a child’s socialisation. After receiving basic education in primary schools, when students enter secondary schools in their adolescent years, they go through many physical and mental changes. During this period, controlling emotions become a big issue for them.

Many are drawn towards drug use and get involved in petty crimes while others face serious depression. Studies and examinations alone cannot help them get over these. So I think every school should have a student counselling centre where students can go talk about their problems with psychologists and counsellors. This could help them immensely.
