Abstract

Self-Deception: Although it should be plainly obvious to Bridget that her son is dealing drugs from his bedroom, Bridget doesn’t explicitly acknowledge the evidence, and insists that the constant traffic to and from her son’s room is a result of an active social life. However, Bridget also becomes uncomfortable whenever the topic of drugs is raised, and much of her behaviour suggests that she does believe that her son is dealing drugs.
