Jacqui that's horribble. I think your tutor had a mean streak. To me it sounds more like "terrify" than "desensitize". Anyway, phobias may seem silly to those who don't have them but because I have a fear of heights that gets worse the older I get, I totally understand. However, has anyone seen that girl on T.V. that is terrified of pickles? She screams and cries if one is in sight? Absolutely BIZARRE.....That one is hard for me to understand.

P.S. I really DO know how to spell horrible (above). I also have a phobia that people will mock my horibbble typing...lol
