Whitelist the suicide prevention hotline's phone number and url

I read the first few pages, and I would just like to point out that if someone is that suicidal, it may have already occurred to them that they should talk to their parents, and they should get some help. Getting help is easier said than done.

Maybe, if someone tries to comment the hotline number, the comment is allowed to go through but the Scratch Team also gets a notification? This could be used to spam the report queue, but then again so could everything.

I support. It was brought up that it could be the parents fault, which means they wouldn’t be safe to talk to on the matter. Typing the phone number isn’t a crime. It’s actually a simple way to help.


You guys should read up on books about kids in terrible family situations:

Eleanor and Park
Two can keep a secret
The Boy and girl who broke the world
All about kids who have issues with their families.
I could make this list longer

I support this, but I don't think Scratch should ever be the place to go for any actual advice on these topics
