The Kindness of Teenage Example


“I actually think that the most efficacious way of making a difference is to lead by example, and doing random acts of kindness is setting a very good example of how to behave in the world.”
~ Misha Collins

A middle school boy I know was in the car with his mother and a friend of hers.  When they arrived at their destination, the boy jumped out of the back seat to open the car door for his mother’s friend.  The friend was pleasantly surprised and the mother was glad that her son was being kind.  The mother knew that her son’s kindness was in no small part based on the example of a teenage friend who exemplifies thoughtfulness and who always opens and closes the car door for others.
