You say, they hear: Part 1

In this video we watch Jack- who is currently suffering from depression – and his father Pete, speaking to each other to demonstrate miscommunication

In order to give a better sense of what miscommunication might look like, we have produced a short simulated video of Jack and Pete speaking to each other. Please note, for the purposes of the course, these characters are played by actors.

We want you to consider the following points before moving on to the next Step:

  • What do you think is going on in Jack and Pete’s minds?
  • What are they thinking?
  • How are they feeling?

Share your ideas below. Take the time to read and respond to posts by other learners or ‘Like’ those posts that you think make a good point. Don’t forget to mark this Step as complete before moving on.
