Question:
hi i am looking to find 10 reasons why it is important in the mentoring role not to be judgemental and to accept differences.
Answer:

Hi Teresa, and thanks for your question.
We really don't do top 10 lists, so I cannot answer your question directly.  If you read through Chapter 22 in our Learn A Skill section, you probably can derive four or five good reasons.  I think it all boils down to that fact that relationships between adolescents and judgmental adults tend to become stormy and counterproductive, rather than effective and helpful.
