Make it illegal for teachers to deny students access to the toilets.
Going to the toilet is a basic human right and for children to be denied access to that is unfair. They should be allowed to go to the toilet when they need as it’s not their fault when their bladders decide it’s time for them to go.
It’s unhealthy for anyone, especially children to hold it in when they need the toilet. Many children have experienced problems regarding their bladders and bowels because of denied access to bathroom. And it’s downright unfair that some young developing girls aren’t allowed to use bathrooms during their menstrual cycle.
