Yes, I recall some of the youth that I mentored during my long career in higher education who did very well. I only hope that the open and caring attitude that I carried towards everyone rubbed off a little bit on them.

People seem to be so discouraged with youth these days. But youth have always been rebellious and searching while in their teens, particularly. It is how we treat them especially during that time that can set them on a positive and fruitful life.
