**ANOTHER UPDATE**
Blogger doesn't do threaded comments, so to respond to a colleague, just post a second comment. Mention the name of the person you're responding to, and summarize the central point you want to address.
By the way, one very legitimate response might be to be persuaded by someone else. If someone made a very good point that swayed your thinking, you can make that your response - but try to drive the conversation forward by adding something to the good point - say in detail how your thinking changed, add additional evidence, or fill out the reasoning.
**UPDATE**
Don't forget to include your first name and last initial in your post, so I can give you credit for the assignment! Include a last initial so that I don't have to hunt through the 3-page long roster looking for your first name. If you forgot to include your last initial, or your name at all, send me an email.
"Professional counselors who learn that a minor in their care has been sexually assaulted are obligated to tell the minor's parent(s)/guardian(s) about the assault, unless the minor alleges that it is the parent(s)/guardian(s) who has committed the assault."
In the comments, do all 3 of the following:
1. Say whether you support creating the law as written; support creating the law with amendments, and list the amendments; or oppose the law.
2. Give your reasons in support of your position.
3. Raise 2 of the best points against your position, and say why those points are wrong, or are less important than your reasons.
