I’m working a new job with troubled youth and we follow a system.
I’m passionate about working with the kids, but they are all girls age 14–19. I do fine with connecting, but sometimes I freeze up when I need to enforce rules and get pushback.
I’m gonna just keep sticking to the rules for consistency. There will be leeway with some things, but are there any tips, books, articles, or anything that has helped any of you out?
I’m fine with them getting angry at me, it’s just how I need to conduct myself ig without coming off wrong.
