Guest guest Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 The Bathtub Test During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director how you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized. 'Well,' said the Director, 'we fill up a bathtub, and then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub.' 'Oh, I understand,' said the visitor. 'A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup.' 'No.'said the Director, 'A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?'
