I'm not sure yet, I do really like children although I don't know if I'll take it on as a career. At one point I considered social work but now I'm not so sure. It's a good career path though, especially if you have a real interest in that area.

Most of my working life has been with young people and children. I have worked with those who have been abused, those with alcohol and drugs problems, homelessness etc... the list goes on really some young people have a multitude of issues that they need supported with.

I have also worked closely with families who are in crisis which has involved intervention to stop breakdown of the family.

I then went on to work at a secure facility for young people who are on detention training orders, basically those that are too young for prison but have certainly gained their life experiences early :shrug:

Working in this field is very rewarding, but very exhausting. It is emotional, draining and sometimes you feel as if the young people are emotional vampires!!!

Good luck to those that choose to pursue a career with young people it is awesome :cheer2:
