There was no defensiveness in it. It was also just you were willing to disagree with me and say, oh, I really like it. And I must have weird taste. I thought that was disarming. And then, you know, as your critic, it's really hard to keep criticizing you when you're complimenting me.

How would this work with threats? that kids won't talk about the bullying that they're receiving. And I think oftentimes because it's that contract, if you talk about it, I'm going to hurt you worse, that David was mentioning earlier. So I wondered if...

I would give that an A+. I mean, I wonder if there's any other type of harassment or bullying that the audience would want to hear our responses to. Other negative thoughts?

Good. I thought that was good. How did that feel to you, David? Was that a huge one?

That sounds good. I like that element. Yeah. Manuel, do you want to respond to that one?

Yikes. I like that. That's fun. I could offer some summarizing.

Yeah, I love that answer, Manuel, because, I mean, in the very first part of the team model, the T is for testing. How do you get the information that there's something going wrong here that as a parent I would want to be able to help my child with? And if the child is in this contract of abuse, they're not going to want to tell us in a straightforward way.

We didn't talk a lot about the empathy model, but once someone does start to talk about their experience of abuse, I think we want to reward that and tell them how proud we are of them for talking about it, let them know that we're going to... be there for them just to listen, but also to help. And what do they need right now? And then I thought we did a good job.
