Rudeness is typically not a natural behaviour.  Children and youths who are rude have learned such behaviour through their social circles.  Rudeness has to be addressed without rejecting the person per se. We have to reassure the rude person that it is their rudeness we can't condone and not themselves.

110: Tackling the Rude Ones

Hello and Welcome to “Every Youth Matters”. I’m Dr John Tan. For the past 30 years, I’ve been helping youths realize their life potential. In recent years, though, I’ve helped parents, teachers, counsellors and youth workers engage their teenagers and youths. In this podcast I will share tips, tools and ways to reach what may be that difficult or challenging youth who just would not respond to your best intentions or actions. What can we do to reach and win their hearts? I believe that a youth’s potential is too precious a gift to waste. So join me in this journey, for every youth matters!
