Permission To Bounce

I've always been intrigued by difference, and the things unite or divide people.  While I was completing my Masters degree in Education I became fascinated by how behavioral differences, and specifically in resistant behaviors. 

You know the type of behaviour I mean.  In almost every group of children or teens, and sometimes in older groups as well, there is one who, it seems, takes pains to stand out-- and not usually in a positive way. They call out, distract, disrupt and generally make it hard for a facilitator to conduct whatever activities they have prepared.  Often, the behavior would continue, even though it was blatantly self-destructive.  The disruptive is self-destructive and, even if the participant has the best intentions or would truly like to stop, they appear to be almost incapable of doing so.  

As I gained experience in different types of teaching environments from the formal, classroom bound to alternative, outdoor focused, I observed that environment had a lot to do with behaviour, especially when it came to kids whose actions could have (and in many cases did) fall under a diagnosis of ADHD, ODD and CD
