A Practical Example: The Kimo Story

A young student by the name of Kimo might say to you, "Tommy hit me."

You would say, "I got that. What else is there about that?"

We are going to assume here that Kimo is still dramatizing the incident, still in his victim act, still communicating irresponsibly, still lying and more blame comes out.

You would then say, "Good. Now, will you tell me what happened from how you caused it?"

One of the foremost barriers to the experience of communication (transmission of subject matter) between students and teachers is the unacknowledged lies.

If a teacher consciously or unconsciously allows a lie or deceit to go unacknowledged, they become cause, responsible, for the student's subsequent failures.

A person's integrity is always at work. Misbehaving, getting sick and failing are signs of a breakdown in communication between the student and the teacher. Failing is a student's unconscious way of drawing someone's attention to the fact that they are not in communication with anyone.
