Hello: I was being a little 'sneaky' with my original post. The below quote is written for a PT taught course!! I didn't include this in my original post because I wanted to see readers reactions without knowing that the course was being taught by a PT.
So now we have PT's teaching other PT's and even OT about the infamous "function". I'm sure we all know how some of us feel about the word 'function', but the implication of this course is S-C-A-R-Y!!!!
