Reply to "PPT for High School Students explaining ACEs"

Thanks so much for your replies, ladies!  I have been told it is appropriate and that it is not appropriate to discuss ACEs with teens.  As I stated, I am working with kids in a residential treatment program for drugs and alcohol as a teacher, not a counselor.  These poor kids do not always choose this destiny as it is bestowed upon them.  With their brains functioning differently, I feel it is important for them to know why and work to find ways to deal with their individual strengths and weaknesses.  I base these comments off of Paper Tigers and the school in Walla Walla, WA.  That school did it and had great success.

Please understand, not all my students are ready to learn about ACEs, but I do have some that need this knowledge to move forward.

Thanks so much for your insights and if you think of anything else or any other ideas, please let me know.  I'm in Pensacola, Florida.

Thanks again--Barbie
