I'm not going to pull the fire alarm if my friend is having an epileptic seizure.


We've gone many generations without cell phones at schools with trained professionals who are qualified to handle seizures. You don't need a cell phone to contact someone who can get medical assistance on a school campus.


I don't know how things work where your live, but I'm willing to bet my right hand that there is not a single person in my school that knows what to do in case of a seizure.


Epilepsy training is bog standard for teachers. Just because the kids don't know how to handle it doesn't mean that the teachers won't.
