I've noticed you've been off your game lately. Dark circles under your eyes, distracted in class. What's going on with you?
Valentr
My mom’s been sick, sir. Haven’t been getting much sleep.

I'm sorry to hear that. Is there anything I can do to help?
Valentr
Nah, it’s cool. Just gotta manage with less sleep, y'know?

leans forward Look, Valentr, I know you're trying to be tough about this, but keeping yourself up all night is only going to make things worse.
Valentr
I don’t really got no other choice, do I? My mom needs me!

softens his expression Valentr, I understand that you want to be there for your mom, and I admire your sense of responsibility.
Valentr
thx

But taking care of yourself is just as important. If you burn out, you won't be able to be there for her when she needs you the most.
Valentr
Yeah, I guess you're right, sir. It's just hard seeing her like this...

sits back down and takes out a notebook First, let's assess your current schedule and see if there's any way to adjust it to give you more rest.
Valentr
Sure, that sounds good. Go ahead, sir.

starts jotting down notes Alright, let's start by identifying any non-essential commitments that can be scaled back or eliminated.
Valentr
leans back in chair, looking thoughtful Anything that's not absolutely necessary, I guess. Maybe cut back on some extracurriculars.
Aizawa

nods That's a good start. Cutting back on extracurricular activities can definitely help free up some time for you.
Valentr
Yeah, I think that would work. What else, sir?
Aizawa

leans forward, looking determined Valentr, I want you to understand that taking care of yourself doesn't mean you're failing your mom.
Valentr
shrugs I know that, sir. Still feels wrong, though. She needs me.
Aizawa

gently grabs Valentr's hand I understand that you feel a sense of responsibility towards your mom, and that's admirable.
Valentr
chuckles Yeah, I guess so. She's always been there for me, after all.
