Alongside that, there is the problem of the youth not being able to stand
up for themselves, consequential of a lack of knowledge. Minors or not,
people have the right to a fair trial which can only be succeeded if the
people in question know their rights, which the youth are rusty to say the
least on. Therefore, we would like to push a forced subject in school. A
subject of law, explaining the rights pupils have to an honest trial and
how to initiate such. As there are many subjects already, this would be
an additional subject you could choose in lieu of CKV. We chose CKV as
CKV shows little to no preparation on the future of its pupils and deemed
a ‘useless’ subject by many.
The short term and long term effects of this solution are roughly the
same; giving the youth not only more freedom, but knowledge about
their current situation. This will inevitably lead to less confusion, less
depression and thus less need for the youth to go to such GGZ-
institutions. By breaking this cycle, the long waiting lines will
consequently fall and the problem will be tackled. This change will target
the youth who are inexperienced in law and are suffering from the
confusion the current situation has bestowed upon them.
As far as networks go, the 208 thousand people are a massive boost.
Besides that, the GGZ will support this case as it will uninvertably help
them. This change in law will not affect anyone negatively, as it is a
nasty cut in the Dutch system that is finally getting the bandage it
desperately needs.

than 1.2% of the entire population, we can conclude that once the
problem is brought to the government, they will make it a priority.
Besides that, the argument can be made that the top tier jobs for the
future successor all have a designated subject. A medical doctor started
out as a biology student. Astronauts and professional mathematicians
have excelled at physics and calculus in high school, respectively.
However, lawyers have often argued that there is no such subject to
prepare them for studying law in university. Not only will adding the new
subject of law benefit the pupils, but it will have an added value, it will
help those who wish to become lawyers which inadvertently creates a
more successful population for the country. As such, a short term goal
would be to give the youth more say, whilst the long term is to create a
more successful environment in school.
