Lily

Lily is a normal, expressive eight-year-old in the community. The only thing different about Lily is that she is snotty and impatient. In Lily's family unit, she has her older brother Jonas, 12, Mother, and Father. Lilly's bond/relationship with Father is much stronger than her relationships with Jonas or Mother. Father is the playful, childish, lenient type who knows how to handle kids, being a Nurturer and all. Also, he is very giving and nice so Lily likes him.

During the daily, family ritual of sharing feelings one day, Lily told everyone about her day with her Childcare group. She had gotten angry at a visiting mal, also 7 at that time, who was disobeying and breaking rules. He had continuously cut to the front of the line of kids awaiting their turn on the slide. Since Lily is not the quiet type, she started to hold up a clenched fist at the boy proving her bravery and aggressiveness, but then didn't proceed. After a little discussion with Mother and Father, Lily's "easy to deal with" feelings were solved.
