ZIMMERMAN CASE & STEREOTYPING

This will be a high profile and highly debated case. It seems so simple, yet is very complex. My first thought was the victim appeared very innocent on the family photos, riding the horse and hugging family members. The clothing he wore on the day of the incident indicated the opposite. It...

MENTAL ILLNESS & INSIDE THE CIRCLE

I read about Whitney Houston's daughter and her now relationship with her adoptive brother. To me, sexual relationships with step relatives, adopted relatives seem too close to blood relation ties. There are enough others in the world that it seems one can find someone out of the family circle to... Sign in to see full entry.

Mental Illness & Touch

Many do not like being touched. I find that the ones who do not like being touched, LOVE TO TOUCH. I went to a basketball game with a co-worker once. She started nudging me each time her son made a basket or did something fantastic. I slid over a little. She hit me harder when he went to the free... Sign in to see full entry.

MENTAL ILLNESS & SPACE

Hoarding is one way that many take up more space than it seems necessary. On the other hand some attempt to use as little space as possible. In the grocery store, those who push the cart in the middle of the aisle take up more space than others. It is difficult to get around them on the left or on... Sign in to see full entry.

O. J. SIMPSON ATTACHED TO ATTORNEY

It seems as Simpson became so attached to an attorney that he cannot or will not listen and follow the advice of current attorneys. This is the type abnormal attachment that I discussed a few days ago. For some, once they believe and trust in one person, anyone after that person does not measure up... Sign in to see full entry.

MENTAL ILLNESS & TIME

Time seems irrelevant and of no consequence to those who cannot see the necessity and importance of time. For a person with no direct awareness of how a few minutes late can and does stop, change and effect orderliness and operations, little will motive them to pick up pace. Individuals with this...

MENTAL ILLNESS & STRUCTURE

Structure provides safety for many. Many find structure within the boundaries of another person. Their minds operate differently. They find comfort in attaching self with another for protection, support and recognition. These individuals get taken care of by others that relieves them of personal... Sign in to see full entry.

MENTAL ILLNESS & CAPTIVITY

The bus driver and brothers deviated from the norm by taking females from their lives and family. The mind malfunctioned the moment it was unable to recognize right from wrong. At that point personality disentergration started. As indicated by the man who helped Amanda Berry said, the fellow acted... Sign in to see full entry.

MENTAL ILLNESS

Mental illness disguises itself in so many ways while hidden within. Crazy is what it is called most often. Until an atrocity happens these individuals play the game of life. Often friends and family members see indicators, laugh it off as odd and allow the individuals to grow more and more... Sign in to see full entry.

Almost a Year

Friends, It has almost been a year since I posted an entry. So much has happened. My brother went to prison. His daughter he thought was helping him mismanaged his money, failed to do as he asked and he is now sitting in jail after betrayal of his wife and each of his five daughters. It has been...

About this Blog

After years as an educator, serving as a teacher and administrator, I have experienced profoundly the focus of my dissertation. I looked at conflict resolution in an elementary school setting. As an individual, initially I did not realize the impact of early learning (in the home) and the real impact on student learning. It is clear now after observing and seeing the dysfunctional behavior prevalent in all aspects of society. This blog will serve as a place to share and receive information that can benefit many in a reciprocal way.
