answer c "Troy, you haven’t given this enough thought. You need to be realistic. You can’t move out without having a plan. Here’s a list of the things that you will need to take care of – money to pay the rent, attendant hours, buying food, making meals, finding an accessible place. This is just the start."



 

This is NOT the correct answer.

Here the mentor does not remember to use the DO IT! strategy.

In this example, the mentor:

  • does not ask questions to help Troy describe his specific goal and describe why it is an important goal
  • does not allow Troy to outline potential plans to achieve this goal and identify the consequences of these plans
  • tells Troy what to do.
