promise.4.Young person regularly disrupts when you are helping others.5.Colleague arrived early to help you write your report.

Affective statements examples exercise

Young people don’t learn the skills or confidence to make decisions

The adults were right : young people can’t make decisions

Adults therefore don’t help or allow them to make decisions

Adults believe that young people can’t make decisions

Encouraging young people to make decisions

To respond to challenging behaviourWhen challenging behaviour, why would these questions consistently achieve ‘fair process’?:

Restorative Questions 1

•What happened?

•What were you thinking about at the time?

•What have your thoughts been since?

•Who has been affected by what you did?

•In what way have they been affected?

•What do you think needs to happen next?

To help those harmed by others actions:Why would these questions assist those harmed by others actions to experience ‘fair process?’:

Restorative Questions 2

•What happened?

•What were your thoughts at the time?

•What have your thoughts been since?

•How has this affected you and others?

•What has been the hardest thing for you?•What do you think needs to happen next?

•the questions are neutral and non-judgemental;they are about the wrongdoer’s behaviour and it’s effect

upon others;they are open questions which require an answer;

they take everyone from the past (what happened) to the future (repairing harm);

they require people to reflect on who has been affected; and

they are likely to help the wrongdoer develop some empathy for those affected.

Restorative Questions: Characteristics - 1

•they seek to build an understanding rather than to blame;

the person asking is likely to be seen as objective and respectful;

they actually allow the person to tell their story;they are more likely to promote responsibility;

they can be applied in every situation; andthey are thinking questions, yet are likely to get 'feeling'

responses.
