Perhaps one day he’ll see a different perspective.
How does one teach perspective?
Is it easier to teach perspective to an adult, or a child, or a teenager?
How does one teach perspective?
Especially when the person no longer attends school,
in hopes that one of the Teachers might cover it in a literature class, or history, or
maybe even perhaps an SEL pop up that the school adopted for a year.
How does one teach perspective?
To an adult, who is very argumentative?
To a teenager who says everything you say “is wrong”.
How do I stay calm, not get caught up in the argument, be a role model for
perspective taking?
I will keep this short. It is the end of a very long day. I hope.
The real question I am currently, this minute,
this slice of my day, dealing with, with an adult AND a teenager,
is…
How does one teach, or emulate, perspective?
Oh, Kara, thanks for your honesty and the rawness of your thoughts here. Hope the sunrise came to a new day. It seems like you are modeling seeing from different perspectives right here in this slice of life post.
