From my college Adolescent Development text book, "
Mentoring tends to
be more successful when the mentor maintains a steady presence in the youth's
life over an extended period (at least two years), has frequent contact with
the youngster, and involves the adolescent in a wide range of recreational,
social, and practical a...ctivities." Just some pointers for those who really want to make a difference in the lives of their at-risk Little's.
