Dr.Phil~

In class we made a mock Dr.Phil scenario based on the book, Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. We got together in small groups and were assigned a character. I was Victor, the main character of the book. The point of this assignment was to work out our problems with the other characters in the book, and Dr.Phil (another person in the group) had to give the best solutions to these problems. Obviously, this "episode" is not realistic, as all the characters are dead by the end of the book, but we all learned different things about the different characters. But I think the bigger picture of this assignment was to understand that there is rarely a right or wrong answer to life problems. Everyone has their own view on things and sometimes, they are all "right". We all have to consider what the other person (or monster) is feeling before we make instinct decisions. I feel the assignment went well and that all the groups did leanr something not only on the book, but a life lesson.
