I realize Tabitha reworded what she originally said, that the presentation was "Tacky and Exploitive" Even if she had not I don't agree that a definitive statement such as
"There is nothing tacky about it" can be legitimized with the argument that this type of thing has been done before, and people with many letters after their names have been doing it". Harmful things have been done by that type of thinking.
Anyone reading Tabitha's posts can tell she is an intelligent woman, I'm sure she's well aware of what has been learned by reading books.
Dr. Bob was asking about his particular
presentation, it has specific qualities these were the qualities of which she made her asessment; much more than a matter of suicide and death.Nowhere did Dr Bob ask an opinion of the writings of Dr. Kubler Ross, if he had I'm sure the asessment would have been quite different.
