I have been thinking of updating the blog about my experiment for a long time now but somehow i was not motivated to write anything...it was a mix of laziness, inertia and the conflicting emotions that i keep going through while working with these children/adults. sometimes, i feel great being with them and am happy with the way they are...then there are days when i see them being so mean to their younger ones, talking rudely, abusing each other and lazying around that i feel utterly disappointed and restless.

anyway, the key lesson is to accept them the way they are and then gently show them the other side. If they accept it - good. if not then try again :-)
