Story of the Day 8/ 22/ 2010

The student asked Sarah if she heard voices. In her head.

Sarah didn’t know what she meant.

This was last spring.

So when another student asked her the same question, “Do you hear voices in your head?” Sarah knew how to respond.
“No.”

Now, normally, we would worry about the mental and emotional state of the person being asked this question, but in this situation, the student who asked then became very confused.

“Well, then, how do you think?”
Because, of course, only people who can hear …voices can think.
Even if, as these students have demonstrated, not very well.
