Working with the youth is beneficial when your not a parent. It shows you all type of situations, emotions, and personalities you can learn from a kid. You see the results of good parenting versus bad parenting. And just by listening to some of their stories you may be able to decide how you would raise your own. And it’s a great way to test your patience and check yourself for how you would handle certain events if you were a parent. Overall I take in every experience with a child as a lesson. So if I ever decide to be one hopefully I’ll be the greatest role model to my offspring. Just my Randum opinion though…
