		<description>From my own experience, until someone realizes that they are being helped, it is difficult to get them to change. It is easier when they understand why you are there in the first place. When they do, then both of you will be on the same platform and in that position you will be operating in the same wavelength.

Like playing a irresistibly sonorous flute tune to a deaf crowd, it is useless trying to solve problems when those affected do not even realize why you are there in the first place.

		<description>Right on Brad.  There is almost nothing LESS rewarding and MORE frustrating than trying to help people who don&#039;t want to be helped.  These people are parasites, and they&#039;ll plea for help and take up a lot of your time and emotional energy.  Eventually you have to make the decision to stop.  It&#039;s happened to me plenty of times.</description>
