So, I signed up for Peer coaching. I basically kind of just help out with the disabled kids at my school, who all have some sort of autism. They're taken around on walks, and the higher functioning ones have little tasks to do around the school and such. I hope to gain more experience working and taking care of people, since I want to be a doctor when I grow up.
I'm worried about handling the scolding and everything though. I've never been good with little kids, and these ones are kind of similar to that. Any advice? I'm not sure if this goes in School or not. |

How exactly does one establish authority though? That's what my teacher said you have to do... I've tried being stern and it doesn't exactly work out
 They're still teenagers, so they try to rebel or get away with stuff and it's hard.
