You ask such a general question.

For one thing it occurs that one's mother is one's mother; on the other hand, people get into therapy because they *know* they are going wrong somewhere. is that what you thought woudl be said?

I am one "client" who constantly gallops off in the wrong direction. Lesseee... do you see these as controlling?

SAWE: There is no such thing as UPR outside of this room, except for one's mother if she is capable, or you could get a dog.
T: you really don't believe that do you? I think that's very sad.

SAWE: I really want to make the most of [therapy], to get it right and not blow it.
T (in a sort of warning tone): are you looking for my approval?
SAWE: Not exactly. But considering what you know, I guess I wouldn't mind having your approval.
