Hell yes, young men need this. Else they wouldn't fall for Tate and similar grifters.

I'll bet you guys made a big impact on the kid. You at least got him closer to a happier healthier life than he otherwise would have been.

If we did make an impact, the bulk of the credit would definitely go to some of the other guys who made more of an effort than I did. I find it difficult to speak up in those situations, since it can be very challenging if I don't feel like an authoritative figure to the person. Usually I just try to lead by example, which can be helpful too but isn't always what is needed. Sometimes you need someone to be brave and stand up without knowing if anyone else in the room will support them.
