Discussion question for January 8, 2016.  Note: No meeting on Christmas Day or New Year’s Day.

The person that thinks like an orphan believes there is no one to protect or provide for him.  When have you witnessed an orphan mentality?  What are the inherent problems associated with this way of believing?  What are the risks to self and others if this frame of reference persists?  What can be done about it?  How would you encourage a friend in whom you recognize this syndrome?
