 Brian Cox
Working at the Boys and Girls Club was great. During the time I worked there, I learned a lot and experienced some very good times. Working with each age group had its benefits. Working with the 6-8 year olds was fun because they’re all still so innocent at this age and you better believe that each one of them still has plenty of energy. The 9-12 year olds are special because they still have plenty of energy too. They also can communicate on a higher level than the younger kids. The teenagers are probably the most different out of all the groups. Their energy level isn’t as high as the other groups, but they can still move around. They also are more mature, more competitive, and better thinkers.
Working at the Boys and Girls Club taught me a lot about children and myself. It taught me that children are very honest (sometimes too honest), they run around a lot, they are very physical when they play around, and they’re smarter than a lot of adults think they are. What I learned about myself is that I want kids when I’m older. I’ve always known I wanted kids, but after working with so many, I know I won’t want as many. I also learned that I’m pretty patient with kids. Before working at the Boys and Girls Club I didn’t know how patient I would be with kids, but now I know that I have a lot more than I expected.
