I have to agree that choice theory does not work. One thing that most people do not realize is that choice theory had a big effect on the evangelical anti-psychiatric movement, particularly Jay Adams, where the therapy is often used to morally control people whose only break from "reality" is being agnostic, or obsessive compulsive, or gay.

@venturetrust Great points! Ultimately, we are the ones who have control of our lives. I believe Reality Theory paired with another form of therapy is dynamite.

I was going to say 'loose the music' !
How could anyone actually choose music to accompany such a lecture.
What were they thinking when they were choosing?... something else?
Thanks for the pointer to the non-music version.
cheers.

just the opposite- he's anit-establishment, anti-drug, against diagnosis such as "bipolar' .Good reenactment demonstrates the theory.

Damn right venturetrust!

I'm afraid Dr. Glasser is becoming too commercial.

I like REBT theory, but this I felt was very good at getting the parent to understand the influence that their approach is having from the 'bigger picture view', ie, Is what your doing helping the child?

I disagree...
How is teaching people that they are responsible for their own behaviour stupid????
How is teaching people effective behaviour stupid??????
I guess Freud was so much more popular...especially after advocating cocaine as the new non-addictive treatment for morphine habituation in 1885.
I have used these ideas for the last twelve years in my work and seen it's efficacy for myself.
Well done for getting Glasser on here ; agree about the music though...unnecessary

I wish there was no sound background, it is distracting and takes away from Dr. Glasser's ideas.
You can find the clip on youtube with Glasser, without the music.
