thank you. I will try to determine what parts can of the story are awkward to correct them. If you are so kind, you can point any of these clumsy parts. I believe that a story should be as easy to read as possible.

Memories from a night in jail First Part A long, long, time ago, I had fled the Spanish army and ran out to Tangier. Later, I was caught in Tangier by the Moroccan police and sent in two days to Casablanca. I was put in a jail with other five Spaniards held there awaiting to be released in two or three weeks. After this time, they let me to get out, after declaring to a judge I was a deserter of Franco’s dictatorship. The jail was a small room 12 by 12 feet large.

A Spanish soldier deserted and is caught in Tangier by the Moroccan police. He is sent by train to Casablanca and put it in a jail for three weeks.

Fro what i have seen in videos on the TV, the rehabilitation process is very likely to fail. They use to shower the person with withdrawal symptoms with a lot of personal attentions and body touching. Well, if the Behavior Modification theory is right, and I believe is right, this is not going to work. The process of extinction of the withdrawal symptoms cannot be done this way. I have not developed yet a precise therapy meant for this, for several reasons. I am not going to discuss this here. But the withdrawal symptoms should extinguish in a natural way. Reinforcing the patient when he declares he feels better. This implies a sort of controlled social isolation. It is a sort expensive treatment. Yours, John Galaor

As for fixing the the angry feelings between you and your brother, the best approach is not to show any signs on your part of being angry with him. On the other hand, the best approach to him showing angry signs of mood in your presence is to ignore them. As if nothing ever happened between he and you. So, the idea behind this approach is that you cannot maintain forever an angry grudge to another person. But the person who is showing those signs to you is expecting you get a notice of them. He is expecting a devolution of the angry signs. But If you ignore these signs, at first he will increase them trying to force you to be aware of them. You should not reward his expectations. You should ignore his moody behavior as you were not seeing anything. You should behave as if he was not in your presence. Only, when his mood changes for the better and shows a normal behavior you should socialize with him by chatting or inviting him to a movie or anything he would like. You can share with him a small piece of chocolate or something, but you should do that in a natural way, as if this were the most natural thing in the world. Perhaps, some of the readers are not in agreement with my theories. Well, the theories are not mine anyway. But I invite them to argument and discuss what I am saying. This is not politics or religion. We can disagree and argument. Yours, John Galaor

This is a complex situation. At 15, the story of angry behavior can be rather... old. I am a sort of expert in "behavior Modification", but not a professional. I mean I had studied the subject about 15 years ago. I have studied carefully about 8 or 10 books on "Behavior Modification". So, for what you were telling, this behavior of your brother has been conditioned outside home. For you do not tell us of any incidence of fighting at home but the last one or so. Well, someone can be conditioned to be bad tempered outside his home, and you cannot do anything about this condition. I mean, the agents that are affecting the behavior of your brother are not under your control. Perhaps, his angry mood is related to debts he have to pay. For the drugs, even mild drugs, like marijuana, are not any cheap. It is no they are not cheap, but they should be consumed almost daily. So, when he is with withdrawal symptoms, he would feel angry, moody, or prone to show a bad attitude. But in general, the best approach to a bad or moody attitude is to ignore the behavior. This is contrariwise to the general attitude of most people. In general, people wait till his child or his brother is having a bad attitude to have a chat with him, and tell him this or that speech. The idea of Behavior modification is that "words have an effect similar to conditioned reinforcers". That is, words do reinforce the frequency of behavior we want to downplay. So, the best approach is the contrary. You have to ignore the first signs of bad behavior, as if you were not aware of it. Only when the behavior is outright aggressive or dangerous, you have to actuate to stop it. Then, if the advice is not to take notice of moody behavior. But you should have to act often, with words and signs of friendship, when the person looks like normal, or shows an indifferent mood. The general idea of Behavior Modification is that reinforcers should increase the frequency of the good behavior, or at least the frequency of the indifferent mood, to make it occur more and more frequently. The reinforcers should be not only words, or a friendly chat. You should also use other more powerful reinforcers, like sweets, beer, or any thing you know he likes. You should invite him to a bar to have a beer, or to movies, or should you rent a video disc that your suppose he would like, and all this. These reinforcers should be used, when the behavior is normal, or at least indifferent. But not when your brother looks angry or depressed. Most of the symptoms of depression and the blue mood are usually reinforced at home, by people who think that the sad or moody person needs help. Of course he needs help. But this is no the best way to help him. This I am saying is totally contrary to what people is doing in these situations. So, you probably do not understand or you do not agree with what I am saying. If you do not agree with me, I beg your forgiveness. And this is the end of my post. If you do not understand well what I am saying, you can asked me what part you did not understand. Yours truly, John Galaor

I want to transmit you my condolences for the death of your brother. Yours, John Galaor
