But the point was that they'd _stopped_ doing hands-on gardening. At
least the ready-made garden they got would, we hope, get them out there
again.



So how was that going to be therapeutic then? Isn't that like doing up
an "adult's room" so they can sit in it and relax?

Isn't a garden the least static thing you could enjoy? It needs tending
and time spent on it and the mother said that she didn't have any time
as she had the twins.
