Hi (((((((((Tomi))))))))) I'm glad to see you too I admire your strength and perseverence. You ROCK !! How did the hearing go? I'm still in the dark about what it's all about, but I hope it's going your way

Thank you for the thoughts on Gram. If she continues to improve, it may take some time, but she'll get back on her feet.

General definition of Socrates Method: Two or more parties involved in question / answer discussion. One party may only ask questions while other parties may only answer. For example: I would ask you why you disapprove of how you were treated by your mother. You give answer like: Because she was unsupportive. Then I might ask you what she could have done to be more supportive. You would answer "listen to my feelings." I would follow by asking How did she ignore your feelings? You would explain in your answer.

It doesn't have to be so simplified, but that's a general example. Both parties are given an opportunity to learn because the questioner may hear something in the answer he / she themself hadn't thought of, and the responder may learn by considering new questions they hadn't fully or recently answered.
It works best with only two people invoolved, but, I think we could adapt it to more than one at a time if we keep the sequence in order.
Reportedly, this is the method of education Socrates used with his students.
