“I have never encountered any children in any group who are not geniuses. There is no mystery on how to teach them. The first thing you do is treat them like human beings and the second thing you do is love them.”

I quote the wise words of a grade 4 student at my school during a restorative circle, who was the victim of a bullying incident. “I will never do bad things to someone who did bad things to me” “I don’t want be be what I hate”. We need more of him in this world. #empathy.#peace
