โI know that adults who accept me for who I am and who don’t judge me will respect me,โ explained one young friend.
I asked: How do you know they accept you for who you are? My friend stopped to think. “They show it in different ways,” she explained. “They really listen and don’t give advice unless I ask for it. They act like they think I matter…” And she repeated, “They don’t judge me.” Adults โ be careful! It comes up often.
Another young colleague described his experience as an intern working with adults who shared his powers: Adults try to shape our lives and the way we see the world in a variety of situations. [In the internship,] The adults here want to hear us out. We know they can learn from us. Our generation has different needs than theirs. It makes me feel like I’m really being heard.
