First Chapter?



Honestly I did expect more hardship with dealing with negative behavior even though I have great kids and struggle to manage them now. At my site, even though we do work with inner city kids, I am pretty sure a large amount of our sites campers are well off compared to other inner city kids. It is great seeing how diverse Baltimore can be and to answer the first question I say no, my ideas of inner city kids were not true by observing and working at SuperKids at Friends. As a growing adult I have been influenced to not judge and just experience, I can make a perfect connection to this because last week one of my campers told me he did not like the food. I told him to try it and he said he did and it doesn’t taste good, then I said take another bite and maybe you might change your mind. He did and sure enough he said it’s not bad. Today that same kids ran to me during lunch and said “Look look , I’m almost finished my hotdog!”. It showed me how not to judge a book by its first chapter.
