Never lend a £1

55 years of living / working with young people in hostels 

I learned many things. 

1 Never lend a £1 when asked - 
but 
ONLY give 

because that young person will spend the rest of her/his life avoiding me which shatters any hard fought relationship. 

Entering a helping relationship can be painstakingly slow without any £1 setback.
