Sometimes, we make mistakes, whether we are young or not. This story, told by a young and wise human, shows how we can move on and heal together when a group is affected by the misbehaviour of an individual or more than one, which relates to the concept of "restorative justice". Acknowledging the caused pain, communicating, getting support, offer true and sincere apologies, choose and apply consequences as needed... The example offered in this episode might or might not apply to your community but, hopefully, it will lead to a reflection at the very least.

When traveling, we might be tempted to take pictures of things that look incredible or unusual to us, something that social media would like for sure. However, when something looks like a tourist trap, like an elephant that walks on the beach or on the sidewalk, we should reflect on the reasons why the animal was brought there and how it is treated. The classic and archaic example is the use of animals in circus shows... Instead, in order to contribute positively, we encourage you to support and VISIT conservation projects such as this one... Social media will like it as well!
