[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 128710"] I think it is all the things that have been said here. Advice given with a good heart, taking the person in mind...however, it might very well not have an impact until the person is ready to receive it and/or has had experiences that allow them to receive it. I also very much agree with the idea of modeling. However, the one caveat that [I]might[/I] help, in my humble opinion, is if you are able to incorporate a very good analogy when giving the advice. Perhaps a personal experience or one of someone you know. I know people [I]can[/I] sometimes have an awakening moment vicariously through the eyes of others. [/QUOTE]
