To enable you to establish a respectful relationship with children and young people you need to maintain your professional distance at all times and remember you’re there to educate them not to be their friends. You must let the child know you’re interested in them and make time for them, each and every one of them. It’s important that children don’t see you having favourites, treat them all the same and respond to them and listen to them when they require your attention. Make sure they know that you’re in charge and they have rules to follow and if not there is consequences to follow they break these rules. Also we need to make sure we are always approachable to a child. Another way of establishing a respectful relationship is if they no they can trust you. So try not to ever make promises that you could not meet if circumstances changed. A child needs praise and encouragement in order to build their self-confidence, if you make them feel good about themselves then they will respond well to you and you will maintain a respectful, professional relationship with them.

The Roman philosopher Cicero, stated in his thesis Ethical Writings of Cicero that “The greater the difficulty the greater the glory.” To further validate this statement, one must look at this issue from all parts of the spectrum. Is hard work always rewarded with glory? Is glory always achieved through hard work? Well in almost all walks of life, those who work hard are the ones who achieve in life. Life presents everybody with obstacles. It is when you truly struggle you reveal your traits of strength and determination. Those who use these traits to their advantage are the ones who achieve in life. The theme of the ability to withstand harsh difficulties and obstacles set by life in order to achieve the greater glory is clearly demonstrated in Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter and in Mark Haddon’s The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. In both of these notable works of literature, both authors use the literary elements of theme and characterization in order to convey Cicero’s claim to the fullest extent.…

Going on nature walks or walks throughout the community just to pick up trash and clean up the neighborhood is not…
