Moms in Group therapy
A psychiatrist was conducting a group therapy session with four young
> mothers and their small children. "You all have obsessions," he
> observed..
> To the first mother, Mary, he said, "You are obsessed with eating.
> You've even named your daughter Candy."
> He turned to the second Mom, Ann: "Your obsession is with money.
> Again, it manifests itself in your child's name, Penny.
> He turned to the third Mom, Joyce: "Your obsession is alcohol. This
> too shows itself in your child's name, Brandy."
> At this point, the fourth mother, Kathy, quietly got up, took her
> little boy by the hand, and whispered, "Come on, Dick, this guy has no
> idea what he's talking about. Let's pick up Peter and Willy from
> school and go get dinner.
