At Outpost Oops, storytelling is a fun way to lean mental health self-care. Our stories give readers of all ages opportunities to explore kind and fair ways to better meet their needs and to feel good about themselves. We hope mentors, such as caregivers and teachers, read our stories with or to learners. As you’ll see, some audio versions are available. When discusing the Things To Think About questions with learners be open, understanding and encouraging. Examples of recommended mentor responses follow: I’d like to hear more about what you’re saying. Being kind or fair can be hard, especially when we’re feeling afraid or lonely. I sometimes need to remind myself I’ll always be a learner.
