One of the things that I work on in therapy is categories. I was working with a group of students and we started discussing the word recycling. The kids defined it and then we proceeded to come up with different items that can be recycled. The conversation went something like this:
Me: What are some things that can be recycled?
Student # 1: Not sure.
Me: How about cans and bottles?
Student # 2: Yes!
Me: How about newspapers and magazines?
Student # 2: Yeah, newspapers and magazines too!
Student # 1: Magazines? You mean like the ones with the swimsuit models on them?
Me (with what I think was a shocked look on my face): yes, those can be recycled as well.
Student # 1: Yeah, my dad brings them home for me and my brother, but we don't tell mom.
Me: Ok! Let's move on to another category...
...things that make you wonder why dad is bringing home those types of magazines for his teenage sons?? Maybe it's a father/son thing?
It truly is a father son thing, and how beautiful that is.....
