Lizzie in Ma Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I think this was a bit much. If this person had these problems with a 14 year old, then a private face to face talk would have been better. It should have been more of a gentle suggestion. I totally agree. If the Advisor is a teacher by trade, she should have thicker skin and more appropriate ways to deal with teenagers learning to take on leadership roles. A teenager messes up and shouldn't be called to task like this after an early, well-intentioned attempt. A private discussion would have been more constructive. Then the Advisor should have modeled expected behavior at the next meeting. Then the teen should have been given the chance to lead again with the Advisor's help. :iagree::iagree: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Corin Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 My initial response is that the tone and content were fine, but that a face-to-face meeting would have been better. Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
