Trudi and Daniel discuss the importance of mentoring in our community and the role mentors play. It takes a whole village to raise a child, mentors of multiple ages and experiences are important, and mentoring can even happen backward through age groups.   A key skill for mentors is deep listening. What does it mean to truly listen and what impact does that have on children?  Who are the mentors in your children's lives, who make up your 'village'?
