Fifth Edition
Questions
- Rob clearly feels very strongly about this case. Why does he find it so easy to identify with Derek and what are benefits and drawbacks of his being able to do so?
- Have you ever very strongly identified with a particular case in a way that puts you at odds with work colleagues? What do you think was going on there?
- Have you had to find a way, in your own life, between what your family wanted or expected from you, and what you wanted to do?
- How are the challenges of adolescence exacerbated by coming, as Derek does, from a particular family culture?
