Thinking on Good Things.

Hysten, Franklin T.

Reaching Today's Youth: The Community Circle of Caring Journal, v2 n3 p5-7 Spr 1998

A college junior's personal narrative tells how, with the help of a handful of caring adults, he managed to overcome a life of poverty with no parental support. He states that adults can help troubled adolescents by emphasizing their creativity and intellect, not their bad habits or inescapable backgrounds and history. (Author/MKA)
