Child’s Situation(Role-Playing)

I. The doctor said that you have an allergy and need to have shots every week so that you won’t sneeze so much. Sometimes the shots are painful and sometimes you hardly feel them at all. The shot you had today was the kind that really hurt. After you leave the doctor’s office, you want your parents to know how it felt.

【段落大意】
玩一个角色扮演的游戏，这是孩子的部分

医生说你有过敏症，需要每周打针来缓解打喷嚏。打针呢，有时候有点痛，有时候没有任何感觉。今天打针挺痛的，打完针后你想让父母知道那一种怎样的感受。

？？？Child’s Situation
situation不是情况，局面吗？

Your parent will respond to you in two different ways. The first time, your feelings will be denied, but keep trying to get your parent to understand anyway. When the conversation comes to a natural conclusion, ask yourself what your feelings were and share your answer with the person who is role-playing with you.

【段落大意】
你的父母会已两种不同的方式回应你。第一次，他们会否定你的感受，但是你要继续努力让他们理解你。当谈话结束，问问你自己你的感受是什么，与角色扮演的另一个人分享你的感受

Parent’s Situation (Role-Playing)I.

你每周要带孩子打治疗过敏的针，小家伙非常害怕打针，但你也知道很多时候打针只是疼一会会。今天离开医生办公室后，娃很不爽的抱怨着。

② bitterly

You use bitterly when you are describing an attitude which involves strong, unpleasant emotions such as anger or dislike.

You’ll be playing the scene twice. The first time, try to get your child to stop complaining by denying his or her feelings. Use the following statements (if you like, you can make up some of your own):“Come on, it can’t hurt that much.”“You’re making a big fuss over nothing.” “Your brother never complains when he has a shot.”“You’re acting like a baby.”“Well, you’d better get used to those shots. After all, you’re going to have to get them every week.”

【段落大意】
你要表演这个场景两次。第一次，否定孩子的感受，让他停止抱怨。用下面这些句子（或者你自己想一些）。

“你最好习惯打针，毕竟你每周都要去”

【段落大意】对话结束，观察自己的感受并分享

II. The scene is the same, only this time you will really listen.Your responses will show that you can both hear and accept whatever feelings your child might express. For example:“Sounds as if it really hurt.”“Mmmm, that bad!”“Wouldn’t it be great if someone would discover a pain-free way to treat allergies?”“It’s not easy to get these shots week after week. I bet you’ll be glad when they’re over.”

【段落大意】
这次的情景是一样的，不过你需真正的倾听。你的回应必须体现出以下两个重点：1、你听到了孩子想表达的内容。2、你完全接受孩子的感受。
例如这样回应：
“听起来这的挺疼的”
“太糟糕了”
“要是有人发明一个无痛的方法来治疗过敏症该多好呀”
“每周都要经历打针挺难受的，我希望打针结束后你能开心”
