“I am currently a teacher and in the course of my work I meet with disadvantaged children and parents. I take it upon myself to do counselling and helping them with problem solving. There is this girl, for example, whose mother died, is living with her father and step mother. The step mother was mistreating her. I successfully counselled them to do better and even got the school to make special provisions for the girl.”
