I have a passion working with young adults, because when I was younger I felt that no one understood me or my feelings.

They asked situation based questions like what would you do if a kid came up to you crying and the child said it was because another camper hit him.
3 Answers↳
In those situations I talk to each kid separately to find out what happened. If the hitting was an accident I make the kid be specific in apologizing about the hitting and what they will do differently next time. If the hitting was intentional, I make the kid apologize being specific about the hitting and enforce a consequence and ask why they have a consequence. This would entail sitting out for 5 minutes Less
