I have been working in the field of mental health, gaining a wide range of experience with diverse populations, including working with first responders and severe trauma.

I ask my 13 year old granddaughter what grade would she give Patrice, A thru F, and she said A. She couldn't give a reason so I asked her 3 questions. 1. Does she understand teenagers and she said Yes. 2. Do you trust her and she said yes. 3. Do you have confidence that she wouldn't tell me anything unless she felt you were going to hurt yourself, and she said yes.
