Miny Schotter & her mother, Shinder Schotter
Miny Schotter, a fifteen year old Hebrew teenager, is the

identified client. Yet, it is her legally blind but "seeing" mother,

Shinder Schotter, that seems to need all the attention. Shinder is

a legally blind woman, mother of Miny. The two live with 

Shindler's mother near Dr. Rev. Stephanie Clemente's

Ward, Colorado  United Church of Christ (UCC) church. Even

though they are Reformed Hebrews, they attend there regularly.

They seek Rev. Clemente's help and the Caper begins. To learn

about this atypical situation, Rev. Clemente invites herself to

dinner with the three of them.  Dialogue and conceptual

information on the importance of good support systems and

aspects of Hebrew culture ​are interwoven.

Stephanie confronts and supports Miny in order to get matters

under control. She gets a member of the church, Herlinda, to

volunteer to work with Shindler in a team approach, a very

important intervention. With this ​approach, life gets better for

​the two quickly.  


In the second section, Sue Shinner seeks help from Nadi's 'Tea,  

Tastes and Tales' group on her husband Sam's depression. Sue

learns about the 
typical treatment processes for depression--

and the faulty assumptions that can be ​made along the way

examined. Sam recovers in an amazing way.

marry all four of the woman he is presently dating; Judy & John

Bearister; Lisa Lu and Rev. Dr. Uncle Charlie, with their spouses;

Corazon & Dorita Periz-Diaz; Tim, who wants a partner, Eric Oslen, who

wants another make partner, Vincent and Lucy, two fifteen year olds who

want to learn what may lie ahead; & Casey, who can swing many ways.

Rapporte-like dialogue is penetrated with truisms and theory that many

believe works.

because their six year old daughter Regina is a major bully in her

first grade class and has been kicked out of school indefinitely

a certain type of feeling because they have a tunnel of
