SCENARIO Justin You have been observing Justin since the incident that occurred in Case Study 1 (refer to Assessment Task 2). Justin told you last week that Paul had left their house and he was glad because he didn't like him. Justin was still very quiet and withdrawn. Today he came to the service and was obviously upset. When you asked him what was wrong, he told you that Paul had come back to the house last night when his mum was out buying some cigarettes. Paul was yelling and angry because his mother wasn't there. He started yelling at Justin and telling him that it was his fault that he couldn't live there with his mother and he was just a nuisance. Then Justin started to cry and said he didn't want to talk about it anymore and went off to sit on his own. (The role play begins here.)
