Question 4 of 35

If a kid is testing your patience, how would you react?

It is always a good idea, not to react in the moment. Sometimes its better to take a step back and analyze the situation. If you feel the situation is becoming out of control, or you are unaware of how to have this child behave properly, ask a fellow counselor to assist you. If you feel you can resolve the situation peacefully, do so. Ask the child why he/she is misbehaving. If the child shows a pattern of misbehaving for attention, maybe its better not to have a reaction at all.
