Probably not. I try to follow Roger Johnson's advice and here Roger says if you think you need to intervene, don't-unless it's something criminal or if it's just unacceptable. If they're a bit off task, you may want to make a note of it and move on. Give them a chance to identify that they're having difficulty and give them a chance to try to get back on track. If it's just unbearable for you, then Roger would recommend intervening with a question. Stop the group, intervene, ask them a question. Don't assume, in other words. Ask them what's going on, and then try to facilitate. Once you've helped to get them back on track, then move on.
