Comfort Zones

This weekend I have to write a presentation for monday. It has to be 15 minutes long.

Not a problem?...well no, except delivering the presentation make me physically shake (so viewers can see me shaking) and my voice go all funny...which has suprised me. Before I presented for the first time I thought I would love to have the opportunity to stand up and have all the attention whilst talking. However the reality was very different!

In class I can talk for england (shocker!!) using quotes and theorists that I have stored somewhere in the back of my brain, but this is sitting down. I think its the standing up in front of the class thing. Maybe I should fake an injury to my leg so I have to sit down!!

Anyway, this presentation is titled "Once a paedophile......." not the best title for me I'm afraid! ...And I have to put forward the rehabilitaition and statistics about paedophiles that dont go on to reoffend, but become valueable members of society.
hmmmmmm....now I have done loads of research, and its actually quite interesting (once 'mother-head' is taken off) and I am quite getting into it (figuratively!!) especially articles and research about why paedophiles become what they are and the processes and stages they go through.

This is realy wayyyy outside my comfort zone. The whole thing is. Giving the presentation and the subject. I will do it because I am marked on it, and have found it interesting to learn about.

Do you think I can offer as treatment for paedophiles my island?
