That's trippy you know him and was your neighbour I hope he reads your comment. Don't know the dude but I'm a big fan

She doesn't care, I mean she can't takecare of herself she's not going to be able to takecare of someone else nicely.

I respectfully disagree. I thinkshe done a great job and gave some solid advice, told him straight and didnt sugar coat anything. He even admitted his family wants to see change him, she helped him realise its gna take more then just getting a job and a licence, she acknowledged that yes those things are good but they are minor there are more important things to work on such as building resilience and applying things hes learning from counselling and becoming emotionally stable. At the end of the day those are the tools needed to not only get a licence but to keep a licence and a job.

@rbruv890 Thank you for sharing your perspective. While I respect your view, I believe it is crucial to highlight why celebrating even the smallest accomplishments of our rangatahi is so important. Our young people often face significant challenges, particularly those who have been through the justice system. Every step they take towards bettering themselves and their lives is a monumental achievement. When we downplay these accomplishments, we risk diminishing their motivation and self-worth. Positive reinforcement is a powerful tool that can bolster their confidence and encourage them to continue striving for success. When a support worker acknowledges these "minor" achievements as significant, it reinforces the idea that progress, no matter how small, is valuable. This can inspire our rangatahi to set higher goals and work even harder towards their aspirations. On the other hand, downplaying their efforts can have a detrimental effect, making them feel undervalued and less likely to pursue further growth. Ethan's journey is a testament to his resilience and determination. It is essential that those in support roles recognize and celebrate these victories, providing the encouragement needed to build a positive and productive future. Well done to Ethan for his incredible progress-his accomplishments he has made ARE on his own merits and are indeed massive and deserving of recognition.

@@thedappercook Exactly, just her whole body language spoke volumes.

Thats right .

The challenging triggers are those tempting thoughts of fun when you were off the rails. Remember the ugly to keep you on track. Only takes one wrong person to muck it all up

I have to reluctantly agree! He probably has maori in him, like me. I look more European than him and it is not until lady's exactly like her realise I can fluently speak te Reo that I get respectful eye contact and respect. She was right I think in saying it is the permanent change in attitude and behaviour worth more than any possible temporary job or piece of paper. But yeh I could feel what you said about his treatment as a fair fulla in a maori support programme. Kia Kaha Kia Mauritau Mauri ora brother Ethan

Don't matter if he's purple and green we don't muck with our mahi, it's best to be straight up with our clients, if they know we're for real the outcome is solid. Doesn't always work out but don't assume.

@@shelbyw6135 thats BS, I don't assume I speak from experiences ,my dads Maori & my mother is pakeha, I've been treated differently quite a few times coz of my looks. It pays for u not to assume.

@@toddfather7541 same here, my dads side is Maori & he looks like he's Mexican hahaha my mums Irish and I got the looks from her side. I speak from experience, I've been treated different quite a few times.

@@LONEWOLF78. Ahahaha my mum is maori Croation and my dad Irish crossed with European something else and a little bit of maori (his little toe i think lol..). Cheers fellow Lone wolf sigma male🙏🏽
