Hi Ivy!

Lovely to see you again! Judgement free zone here.

Can I ask why you stole $60 at school? What did you think would happen?

Something for you to think over… What do you think happens as an adult in the outside world if you steal money?

I think people constantly remind you of things because you don’t seem to understand consequences. They actually went really easy on you because of your conditions.

Perhaps they don’t think you’re the worst person ever? Perhaps they are just afraid that you will do something that you don’t really understand the consequences of. You are quickly becoming an adult and adults are not given the same benefit of doubt that children are. In society, adults can be harshly punished for behaviours that are accepted as children. I can understand why they are afraid for you. They want you to have a safe and happy life.

I remember that you showed me a rough draft and it was very charming. I think practicing as you have been works well. To me, you already know how to make a good story so just keep at it!
