Psychology: Unplanned Ending
I really like reading your post. I don’t think that anyone would like a unplanned ending. Unplanned ending can be really hard on group members because it’s a sudden change in their life and they have to adjust to loosing the relationships that they had. A planned ending is very beneficial to every one because there is time for preparation and he members know that the group is about to come to a end. I work for as a Behavior interventionist for ACES. One thing that we have been taught in our training is that whenever we are going to take something from a child we have to count out loud. For example if I want to take a ball from the child I would count 1 2 3 ok is Craig’s turn now the reason for that is because I am giving the child time to prepare
themselves for the ending of a play time with a toy. This same concept can be take to a group. Planning an ending can be easier on everyone including the social worker. One thing that I am curios about is to how do you know when the group is ready to be ended? The reason that I am asking is because I would be afraid to end a group to early and for someone no to get the help that they need. Depending on the group a person may or may not want to speak up about topic, they may feel as though they are being left behind and thn become a victim of group think.
