Except that when my family situation was very rough the menachaneches skipped talking to me . Both 10th and 11th
Later heard through the grapevine that she felt unqualified to talk to teens with real issues.
So I’m not sure your freind would have gotten the support.

There should have been a school Guidance Counselor (with professional qualifications) that a mechaneches could refer someone to when needed. Plus maybe, guidance as to how she could offer support without overstepping her bounds.

ETA I think I met with the Mechaneches in my high school once, for about 5 minutes. In addition to someone who spoke to me individually about seminary, which was about her plans for me and where I could be dumped, not mine. BH I got into seminary without her or my school's help.
