The word group means something different to me. After my mom left my dad, we went to live in a transition house. The only transition house i think, it is on college or around there.
Two things i remember there, I didn't want to eat my pea's for supper one night and couldn't go watch gremlins cause of it. The other thing was group sessions with the other kids.
They kept coming around to my sister and I. "how are you doing, is there anything you want to talk about?", and we would answer, "fine, no". Group meant the time we would go and have people talk to us about what we went through in life.
Group meant silence.
It should have meant talking, telling people about how our dad used to beat us...but we were so fucked up, so messed from that, that group meant to be alone.
