Presentations!

I was extremely nervous to do my presentation on Animal Assisted Therapy, but then when I was the last person in the class to go, it really wasn't that bad. I always get anxiety about presentations, because I don't like to publicly speak, but I have been with these classmates for so long, that it is starting to seem almost normal to present in front of them. I'm hoping that I get a good grade on it because I worked pretty hard on it, and invested quite a bit of time. From other people's projects, I learned about a lot of different things. Many of the presentations made me nervous and uncomfortable though, because they were about touchy subjects including child abuse, and cutting. The child abuse presentations made me the most uncomfortable, especially the one that including the video of the mom that was making her child eat hot sauce because of something he did at school. She then made him take a cold shower as another punishment for what he had done. The video made me so nervous and unhappy that there are parents that are really like that. It is so wrong for parents to treat their children, or anybody, like that!
