In order to help the youth, we have to allow them to be able to fully and comfortably express what it is that they need. You may not always agree, like, or understand what's being said but they should be considered just any adult would be when it comes to having choices, decisions, and a voice in life. Extend yourself to your kids, your nieces, your nephews, kids overall. Your love, attention, and support are exactly what they need. As we all do!
