Glasser Group last evening
We had a good little (William) Glasser group last evening here at the Mid Town Family Resource Center. 4 families from our foster care/ adoption/ host home "family" came to participate, as well as 2 teens. (Four staff also participated). Last night's session was on Glasser's concept of "Quality Worlds." We discussed how everyone has a "quality world"- the way they would like their world to be; the way it was in their most idealized picture of the past, or a future they aspire to. We discussed, how with children who have been displaced, traumatized, etc. and who are resistant/ skeptical, etc. trying to become someone in their quality world is an effective intervention. We had a big storm right when we were wrapping up, and good comraderie was shared by this building/ growing family of ours!!!
