#powerofrelationshipstaps Do it because it’s the right thing to do, not to avoid pain, not because of what’s in it for me. Build the sense of responsibility.. this takes tome neural pathways etc & must be done within positive relationship @ThomasAcresPS@tr_high
#powerofrelationshipstaps Our job as educators is to be influential & persuasive.. what we’ve got to offer will make a difference to your life ... to can’t actually make anyone do anything.. you can only control yourself @ThomasAcresPS@tr_high

#powerofrelationshipstaps Don’t blame others for your choices .. I cant make you do it .. but what are the consequences of you not doing it
