The most powerful tool or weapon you can give anybody is information by education. Present various views and opposing perspectives, and sometimes provoke their thinking by presenting an argument that forces them to take a position or question where they stand. Let them decide what to think and how to use the information on their own, but challenge them to do further research. If you give a person all the answers then there is nothing for them to learn except to repeat only what you've said.
Even when you give the answers many times folks won't accept them or the way in which you gave them. Everybody that learns from you doesn't have to like you but you must love them and not allow their dislike or disagreement with you to stop you from doing or saying what you believe is right. It may not be until years later when they realize the good you have done and your true intentions. ~ I.J. West
