Halloween Using Your DISC-Eyes!
|
Halloween is going to be here soon. It’s time to carve your pumpkins and pick out your costume. Kings and princesses, movie monsters and pop-stars, comic book characters and astronauts will be in your neighborhood to do tricks or be treated.
Let’s take a fun look at a family through your DISC-eyes.
|
| High D
David is a high D. His goal for this year is to get twice as much candy as he collected last year. To meet this goal, he asked his dad to take him to another neighborhood, where there are more houses and more families with children. He determined by going to this other neighborhood, that it would be more likely that he would get more treats. He also delegated the carrying of a spare sack to his younger sister, Samantha, just in case he fills up his first candy bag. David’s costume choice: Darth Vader.

| High I Irene, David’s mom, is a high I and she’s excited because she is going to go to a costume party the night before Halloween where many of her friends will be. She is in the costume shop now having trouble deciding what to wear. She is chatting with every employee in the store and with most of the other customers as she asks their opinions of what they like best and which costume they think most other people will like. She knows she doesn’t want a big heavy mask because she wants to easily see everyone at the party and she’s afraid that if she wore a full mask, nobody will recognize her, so she decided on the attention-getting Marie Antoinette outfit with a little handheld mask on a stick. |
| High S
Next, we have Samantha, the high S sibling of David. She is nervous about going with David and her dad to the other neighborhood because she’s much more comfortable sticking to the neighbors they’ve always visited for treats in the past. In the end she agreed to go with David’s plan because they go together every year and she didn’t want to split up their team. Although she’d sometimes like to be the one who gets to push the doorbell, she knows David always does it and she doesn’t like to make a fuss about it. Samantha was going to dress up as Lisa Simpson like she did last year, but the costume didn’t fit anymore so this year she’s going as Snow White.

| High CCharlie is David’s and Samantha’s dad. He’s the high C in the family and not a big fan of Halloween. He gets grouchy thinking about all the unruly kids running across his well-manicured lawn and the inevitable toilet paper that will be thrown across his carefully trimmed hedges. He has a rigid timetable for taking the kids trick or treating and he has a very precise two-step system for inspecting all the candy to be sure it’s safe. He’s dreading going to the party Friday with his wife and all those people who will be playing games and laughing at silly jokes. If he goes, he knows the babysitter will probably ignore his instructions regarding what time the children are supposed to be in bed and that she will let them watch unauthorized TV shows. Since Irene is going as Marie Antoinette, Charlie thought it would be only right to go as Louis the Sixteenth, but none of the costumes at the shop were authentic enough according to his research, so he is going instead, as Cardinal Richelieu. |
