Like kid,Like an Adult

The first part of my employment in the classroom, I would get pained whenever the kids exhibited certain behavoral patterns. finishing my sentences, hanging out with a poor choice of friends, holding on to negative feelings and displaying a lack of self control...I do all of that and I am in my forties. I am willing to bet that a lot of other adults do too. Having this realization softened my stress and dressed me in empathy for their heartbreaks.
