I think @ordinarylives said exactly how I feel. It’s a terrible quandry - yes parents should be the primary source for kid to get mental health care from. If they are unwilling or unable schools become the default. Not ideal especially if they can’t get parent support for the child either. Then whose responsibility does it become? That’s the gap - schools can possibly identify the need but can’t really follow through the process. I have seen that there are more resources in a university setting where they can charge everyone a fee for having the services available but public schools can’t do that. And not everyone goes to college either.
