Why are you on the keto diet?" }, { "emotion": "grateful", "from": "patient", "value": "It helps me lose weight and I have energy on it. I just don't do well on carbs but eating sugar can reset me :/ It just takes such a long time and money to get ingredients and get a dessert right for keto." }, { "emotion": "questioning", "from": "therapist", "value": "Yeah, that diet is somewhat expensive. Has it been hard sticking to it?" }, { "emotion": "neutral", "from": "patient", "value": "The desserts are expensive but actually it's quite cheap if you do fasting. I eat much less now. It is not hard most of the time but you do get sick if you eat too many carbs- So that makes it easier to stick too lol" } ]

All you can do is tell them how to respectfully and appropriately respond and defend themselves." }, { "emotion": "guilty", "from": "patient", "value": "I didn't do that. I yelled at the teacher until I got tired, then I left. I don't think I'll send my son back there." }, { "emotion": "neutral", "from": "therapist", "value": "Ah.. so it's that kind of situation. Yeah, it can be one thing if it's just something where kids are acting like kids, and you can't physically intervene in time. But it's another if you think it's neglect and that they're not responding appropriately to the situation. I would trust your judgment. I hope everything ends well with it though!
