Teachers and Mental Health is my attempt to teach theteachers of children (teachers and parents) some of whatI have learned over 40 years of doing therapy, about therather simple, but apparently poorly understood factors inchildhood thinking that go on to create a lot of mentaldistress by adulthood. Some of the points in this book are:. Teachers teach correct speech, but most do not teach accurate speech. We end up believing what we say, which is why it is so impor tant tosay it accurately. We end up acting on what we believe, which is another r eason whyit is so impor tant to say it accurately. Children have a delusional belief system that sometimes continuesthroughout adult life. A minimum of half of the world is in a delusional state all the time, and 98% of people respond to at least one situation in a delusionalfashion one or more times during an average day.. Our general understanding of the word responsible, contributes greatlyto misunderstandings and poor outcomes in life. Failure to understand high and low levels of abstraction in our speech(and thinking) generates mistakes in communication.
