People who are permanently damaged by trauma seek to assimilate what happened into their existing models. People who grow try to accommodate what happened in order to create new models. The person who assimilates says, I survived brain cancer and I’m going to keep on chugging. The person who accommodates says, No, this changes who I am…I’m a cancer survivor….This changes how I want to spend my days.

How to Know a Person

Assertiveness Situations. Now you are ready to practice these four steps with your child. Tell your child that you have some more skits, but this time there aren't any lines written out for her. Tell her that what you're going to do is read the situation and then you want her to act like Say-It-Straight Samantha and go through the four steps. Remember the four steps:   Step 1: Describe the situation: just the facts. Step 2: Say how you feel. Don't blame the other person for your feelings. Step 3: Ask for a specific and small change. Step 4: Say how this change will make you feel.
