Real Problems: James

The Situation

The Situation

You observe a fellow coach at your organization telling a 13 year old male, who is effeminate and dramatic, that he needs to “man up” so people don’t think he is too girly or gay. What would you do?

  1. Watch the video
  2. Rate the Interaction! How'd the YDP do? What would you do?
  3. Watch participant reflections and expert critiques, and review what other YDP thought of the interaction

Reflections

What did James think?
What did the YDP think?
What did Christopher Fisher, Ph.D. think?
What did Kathleen Baldwin think?

What Do You Think?

What'd you think? Critique the YDP!

So, how well did you think the YDP did? Where might they improve?
