CJ Social Worker: May 2008

http://cjsocialworker.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html

Sunday, May 11, 2008. 8217;t that they can’t see the solution, they can’t see the problem.”. A PhD psychologist had evaluated dad. Like many mental health professionals who do not understand domestic violence, she relied on standardized tests, including anger scales. Dad’s attorney made a motion to exclude my testimony partly because I am a social worker and therefore not qualified to be an expert in this case. Fortunately, the judge didn. 8217;t agree with him and I was allowed to testify. The judge con...

CJ Social Worker: September 2009

http://cjsocialworker.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html

Saturday, September 19, 2009. A life of reaction is a life of slavery, intellectually and spiritually. One must fight for a life of action, not reaction. I'm trying to get my timing right. You know how sometimes you think of "the perfect comeback" only like three hours later? Or, you say the absolute wrong thing because you just can't stop yourself because you're mad? That's what I'm talking about -. What is the peak reaction time. Good therapists know about the power of silence. That's the time when...

CJ Social Worker: November 2012

http://cjsocialworker.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html

Sunday, November 18, 2012. Affection, Love, Hurt and Defining Relationships. I had the chance to talk with a mom who’d previously been in a violent relationship and had gone through a counseling program. She said that it was nice for her and her kids to hug because they loved each other, not for comfort, not following a beating. Posted by CJ Social Worker. Labels: children and domestic violence.

CJ Social Worker: March 2008

http://cjsocialworker.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html

Friday, March 21, 2008. The Big Screw Up OR The End of Denial. All happy families resemble one another. Each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way. We’ve probably all heard that the Chinese sign for crisis is the same as opportunity. I don’t know if the part about that being a Chinese sign is true, but I do believe that crisis is a chance for change. It is life telling us –. Hey – this ain’t working – you can’t force it – so here’s a chance to make it right. Can I help you? We all do the right thing.

CJ Social Worker: April 2008

http://cjsocialworker.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html

Sunday, April 27, 2008. Why doesn’t she just leave? I have been working in the area of domestic violence for so long, I am surprised that people still ask this question. Really – you don’t know? How about this –. Why doesn’t he stop hitting her? Surely, by now, EVERONE knows that “the state picks up the charges.” Why does he make the choice to keep hitting her knowing that he’ll be prosecuted? What the heck is wrong with him? 1) Stay in the relationship. Make no choices to stay or leave. Pretend....So, w...

CJ Social Worker: Power of Labels

http://cjsocialworker.blogspot.com/2011/11/power-of-labels.html

Wednesday, November 9, 2011. Herman Cain’s campaign is flailing and sputtering out of control due to Cain’s documented behavior with women. Cain’s campaign seems to be relying on some good ole misogynistic labels and myths to get him out of his increasingly dire situation. And, like many people who engage in subterfuge, Cain does tell us some truth, even if he doesn't realize it. From a Bloomberg article 11/09/11 (link below):. From being elected U.S. president and that he expects more accusations. Women...
