I can definitely see the good side of this initiative. However I'm afraid there's also a bad side to this as children can be cruel to any sign of weakness or difference. I think parents have to support this initiative and talk to their children about the importance of including etc.

I'm definitely curious how satisfactory the results are going to be.

I think it's interesting that they've recruited kids to be advocates for using the bench in the intended way. Kids can certainly be cruel, but I think they are just as capable of enforcing positive norms as negative ones. So maybe that's how this will work out here.
