The pro bono bit Molly. There are limits, even with our no soul left behind policy. Psychodrama seems to pin it all. As in shower curtain, knife and cut to black-and-white, all turned into a one-woman show at the Bate's Motel. Could we not get her doing her own therapy too? I know she only craves attention because she has a younger, prettier, smarter sister, but most kids do grow through this stage. Maybe we should start charging and create a waiting room to do some Lacanian time structuring (she stays out there, we do nothing and then send her a big bill for the non-therapy that has taught her to understand how she wastes our time)? Or we could roll her up in a carpet and have it sent c/o 'Chrissy Jenkins, Some Swamp, Flouride County, SEP' (someone else's problem).
