12th January 2020- It’s your call day

Ms Ma proposed a game “It’s your call", which means we make decisions for the other one and the receiver only can say yes. I had turned it down because I didn’t want to live by others will. Then Ms Ma offered a better option that I could be the one decide everything and she was the yes-person. If I didn’t like it, we didn’t have to continue. Sounded great, so I accepted the challenge.

馬大大提議玩一種遊戲「你說了算」,也就是無論對方說什麼,你都只能說認同,不可以說「不」。我本來拒絕她,因為我一點也不想過著順從他人意願的日子。但後來馬大大加碼提出,我就當那個決定每件事的人,不用被下指令,而且如我不喜歡,可以隨時停止遊戲,也不用交換當被決定的人。聽起來還不錯,所以就試試看吧!

We started the game on 11th January, but it took only one day I found I’m not good at following order and not good at making decision for others as well. I didn’t feel comfortable to make decision for other person, even they didn’t mind. I thought my social worker soul still exist. I truly believe that client self-determination is important and it’s the way to demonstrates the respect to human being.

我們1月11日開始這個遊戲,只用了一天,我就發現我實在不是聽話的傢伙,也不習慣為他人做決定。就算人家自願被控制,我也感覺幫別人做決定很不舒服。我想社工的靈魂仍駐守著,案主自決的原則已經內化成我的一部分,對我來說,它不僅是重要的原則,也是展現對人類尊重的方式。

Who can make the best decision for you? Only yourself.
永遠只有自己可以為自己做出最好的決定。
