The mentor mindset is saying: “This is hard, but it’s hard for a reason.” The approach works because it comes across as respectful: I, the adult with power in this situation, view you, the young person, as independent and able to determine your own future."

I just finished reading _Zero Day_ by Jan Gansei, a thrilling YA novel about Addie, a politician's daughter, who was kidnapped at 8 years old, brainwashed, and turned into a super-hacker. I spent the whole novel wondering if she was going to be "good" or "bad." #TurntheTVoff
