Last reflections

As a few of you have said, after watching those movie clips from Antoin Fischer on Thursday I too want to go out and rent the movie. Our Family Science final is my last final so maybe I'll go out and rent it after that:) I didn't think about it until one of you brought it up but I don't think we went far enough into the whole working with families topic, especially because I'm sure there are a bunch of people in our class who will be doing just that. The class seemed kind of rushed...we didn't even get through the 4th aspect of Effective Interpersonal Support (he said there are four but we only got through listening, understanding and support) I do wonder now what the 4th aspect is. I also thought it was interesting how Dr. Hollist emphasized that as a professional, you're supposed to help people find answers adn learn to process and deal with their own problems rather than just telling them how to fix them. I think the Antoin Fischer movie clips did a good job of showing that and I'm excited to watch the whole movie and see how things play out. That is also something to think about even when just talking with my friends about their problems. I can't believe this is the end of this class! It was one of the best classes I've taken in college (and I've been here 3 years - and 3 to go with my new major, family and consumer science education and I am super excited to take more classes like this and learn more about the things we discussed in this class.) I feel that this class has not just helped me in my professional development but also just in my development as a person!
