- 10:29it's,
- 10:29you
- 10:29know,
- 10:29a
- 10:29very
- 10:30difficult
- 10:30thing
- 10:30to

- 11:07that,
- 11:08you
- 11:08know,
- 11:09when
- 11:09you
- 11:09think
- 11:09about
- 11:10you
- 11:11as
- 11:11a

- 11:17for
- 11:18you
- 11:21when
- 11:21you
- 11:22want
- 11:23your
- 11:23students
- 11:23to
- 11:24know
- 11:24or
- 11:24that's
- 11:25just
- 11:25simply
- 11:25who
- 11:26you

- 11:26as
- 11:26a
- 11:26human,
- 11:28that
- 11:28they
- 11:29are
- 11:30supported,
- 11:30that
- 11:31they're
- 11:31heard
- 11:32because
- 11:32that,
- 11:33you
- 11:33know,
- 11:33middle
- 11:33schoolers
- 11:34aren't

- 33:36that
- 33:36means

- 36:40they're
- 36:40afraid
- 36:41of
- 36:41losing

- 36:42themselves
- 36:43when
- 36:43they
