They also address a local issue in Saline football, where improper registration led to game forfeitures, raising questions about school choice policies and accountability.

    Frank Rubino ~ On The Couch - Road Rage
    Oct 2 2024
    October 2, 2024 ~ Lucy Ann Lance talks with Psychotherapist Frank Rubino for this week's On The Couch. Frank attributes road rage to a perceived violation of personal space and emphasizes the role of fear in these reactions. The discussion contrasts this with more patient approaches to cautious drivers, highlighting the impact of personality differences and increasing traffic. Aggressive responses such as yelling or honking are linked to frustration, particularly when running late, suggesting that deeper issues like underlying unhappiness may influence such behavior. The text also considers reckless driving among younger individuals, pointing to immature risk assessment and narcissism. Practical advice includes leaving early to reduce stress, practicing deep breathing, being considerate, and slowing down to acknowledge shared road rights.
