The couple’s 2 children are present for the intake session: their 10 year old son and 8 year old daughter. Christine complains that their son, “ has no respect for me and calls me awful names, just like his father”. Robert smirks while Christine talks. He tells you that Christine is, “just like her mother, lazy and fat”. During the psychosocial assessment, you learn that Robert’s father left him when he was 11 years old and that he was the caretaker of his younger siblings while his mother worked 2 jobs. Christine was raised by both parents, in a very strict, abusive home. Her father was an alcoholic and her mother told her and her sister to not speak to anyone about the abuse in the home. You notice the daughter hiding in the corner with fear in her eyes during the session.
