In Review
Our tuesdaynight men’s class is coming up on the last two chapters having completed 9, 10, and 11 over the last few weeks.
There has been much discussion about the way Mr.Rosenberg gives examples and uses NVC. The examples often seem a little vague, and sometimes leave more questions than answers. We have attributed this to writing style, while I like to think it is purposeful mischievousness to leave us hanging. Some seem to focus on these minor issues as they have a hard to processing information that is so contrary to their learned behaviors.
One of our members shared lastnight that he observed himself initially responding to his child in a punitive manor after finding out some disappointing news about the child’s scholastic performance, but by was able to self monitor, and respond in a supportive and empathetic manor. He felt empowered by this and directly attributed the classwork to this great success.
