Speech Comm ATTENDENCE REQUIRED::PRIZES GIVEN



OK, gang. I was going to show a movie, but most of the ones I personally own about trust and exploring trust have to do with bondage or other adult themes not suitable for a high school clasroom. I know this isn't the average school, but I can't do that to you.

So instead...*Pulls a large shopping bag from behind her desk and sits it beside herself*...today you get a test.

Interpersonal trust depends upon RECIPROCITY, or, in other words, a give and take...



I have done things with and to you all week. It's only fair that now you return the favor. I trust you all to not actually harm me, since I didn't really harm any of you...*looks at ONeill*...Ok, so today's trust game...

You may
1. Ask me anything and I will answer you to the best of my knowledge. If it's something I really don't know, you get to ask another question.
OR
2. You may approach me and do something physically to my person...which I must admit is requiring a huge amount of trust to counter any fear...

"Do you have any regrets? About anything in your life?"

*A look of pain crosses her face*

Of course Sydney...I think everyone does.

Mostly I regret things i didn't do...I didn't go home to spend time with my dad before he got so bad that he doesn't remember any of us. I regret not going to the Rush concert all my friends went to and got to party with the band. I regret not having a baby when I could have...

*She quiets for a moment, thinking*

But I regret things I've done, too. I regret hurting men who didn't deserve it. I regret tolerating treatment that demeaned me as a woman and as a person...

*Uncomfortable, she tries to lighten the mood*

And I'm beginning to regret setting this up. *Smiles faintly and laughs weakly*

*Smiles* No problem Sydney...that's what this is about..trust and communication.

Ok, good personal inquiry, get up here and pick out your [make something up]. *Gestures to the bag*

Sydney goes to the bag and picks out a bag of candy. "Thanks."
