Frustrated that I could not bridge the gap - Trying to connect - I would come home frustrated because I knew there was something more but was not able to connect with a referral to discover the key insights about their situation or their past to serve them. And she would often say in an attempt to defend me or make me feel better, you cannot care about their situation more than they do. When she did, I would get myself feeling more frustrated but didn't know why until the last few years.
Caring more is when moments of impact happen. Teachers mentors advocates. I care because I care. If you don't care about yourself that is your choice. Usually, you are distracted by something else.
Every Child is just one caring adult away from being a success story
