I am a 15 year old but, trust me, I've seen it all. I have 5 siblings who I adore and 4 cats who are allergic to not causing trouble for two seconds. I know CPR and I can calm someone down from a panic attack if need be— as I myself have dealt with these things. I have completed NCEA level 1 early and I work pleasantly with people who's first languages aren't English.
