Anger Management and Emotional Control | Monday | Period 1
At the front of the room today, there was a container of brightly-colored foam balls, each just about small enough to fit in a teenager's palm. As the students filtered in, Bruce directed them to each take one.
"These are stress balls." Oh, Bruce, really? "It sounds hokey, but sometimes in everyday life, when you don't have the time to excuse yourself to watch a funny movie, it can help to have something to be able to squeeze in your hand, rather than expressing your frustration in other physical ways."
Like crushing someone's head. Don't do that.
"There's not a lot to be said about these, so I'd rather you have some time to work with them," he said. "You'll find each of you has a role to act out in an envelope under your chair, so please pair up and talk normally. If you become frustrated, you've got your stress ball."
"Oh, and you're welcome to keep these, by the way," he added.
