Misbehavior And Punishment Are Not Opposites That

Many Teenagers Are Tormented By Terrors They Deem Private And Personal. They Do Not Know That Their Anxieties And Doubts Are Universal.

Teenagers Crave Independence. The More Self-suf-ficient We Make Them Feel, The Less Hostile They Are Toward Us.

If We Treat People As They Are, We Make Them Worse. If We Treat People As They Ought To Be, We Help Them Become What They Are Capable Of Becoming.

I Can Be A Tool Of Torture Or An Instrument Of Inspiration. I Can Humiliate Or Heal. In All Situations, It Is My Response That Decides Whether A Crisis Will Be Escalated Or De-escalated And A Child Humanized Or Dehumanized.

Only If A Child Feels Right Can He Think Right.
