[QUOTE="Ropefree, post: 237122, member: 6271"] Jcox: The center may need to rethink their policy of conducting "sessions" with new minor clients without a parent in the room. What is wrong with this situation is the center is operating on a set of premises that are not safe for a child. Any child who is new to a situation will need time to build trust with a new adult. It seems to me that as time goes on the professionals are insulating themselves from the rights of a child to have a custodial parent or legal guardian in the room in their legal role as a childs consenting authority and limiting their services to those children who are meeting the professionals needs to be in control, rather than respecting the relationship of a minor to their parent or guardian. The lack of integrity the person invoved offers to their proffession by editing the client lists rather than aplying their professional services to meet the client needs is an example of placing a fee befor the practice of a healing art. The professional, in effect, is offering the idea that when the child reacted emotionally to a set of circumstances showing lack of control or understanding then it allows the professional to dispose of the relationship: or control it reactively. At minimum the professional with a child would have served this situation by apologising to the child and offering to try again another day, if that would be alright with the child and parent. That would model the correct solution for loss of control. That would offer the clinical oppertunity for the child in a safe relationship to then acquire the diginity of self awarenes and move toward their part in repairing the situation with respect to the assault on the conselor. That conselor or whatever is incompetent. they did not establish a safe relationship and prompt the subject (a minor) forward in a safe relationship. In minute one when it was apparent that the child was not going for the isolation with the new adult was the moment the conselor could have stepped back from his or her imposition onn the subject to let the subject know that their 'feelings' were important.
