I have a situation where my children's principle was working against my children's success. So I went in to have a meeting.
In situations like this, it is very difficult being able to see into people. I know more than I should, so when I try to correct the issue, I can't say "oh, and by the way.... I read your mind and I know your doing this just because you think I'm nothing but an unemployed housewife."
The first meeting; I wanted my children moved back a grade. The twins were premature and just weren't ready for school, so I wanted to correct a mistake I made. Instantly she thought that she could bully me into falling into any path she thought best. Then she turned all Sibyl once she realised she couldn't bully me. She tried sweet and on my side, "but wouldn't it be best for the kids. They will get totally screwed up self esteem if they move back a grade."
That didn't work so she turned mean. I actually could see this big metal bar in her head lock down into place. Truly weird. You know how when you think you're about to get knocked over you will lock your knees? Kinda like that. She battened down her hatches and said to me...... "I'm not moving them." I said, "Then give me the paperwork to with draw them." She said, "Well what are you going to do with them?" I said, "I'll homeschool for now. I have options." Here it comes....... her response to me.... and she was really proud of herself for this one.... "YOU KNOW............. you are really going to screw your kids up that way." In her head she actually thouht she had me over a barell with that comment. Somehow I was just going to suddenly give in and scream, "Oh My God, your right! I must save my kids by letting you mold them for me."
NUTBALL woman. This situation isn't even the point. The fact that loud thinkers, arrogant people, and assholes all project their thoughts. I have accidently repeated a person's thoughts back to them before. When I go off the deep end and loose my temper my walls fall down and I can't help it. That is why I don't fight with friends. The person I did this to was at a store. The lady behind me in line got her panties in a bunch because she had to wait for me and my kids to check out. I had a huge months worth of groceries. She had about ten items. She started talking to the person behind her. Let me just mentioned that she could have gone through the express line or the self check-out. Anyway, she was talking to the lady behind her who was clearly embarassed by this woman. I could hear everything she said. She was griping about my kids making it take too long to check out. They were talking to the bagger and clerk. My daughter wanted to help.
Suddenly I caught her screaming thoughts. So I turned to her and said, "Do you seriously think that I followed you around to cut in front of you just to make your day miserable? Wow, that is messed up. I assure you, my day has nothing to do with you." The lady behind us all laughed. She turned several colors then left the line. Okay I admit it, that was a bit fun. But I really don't try to do it.
Another time I was at the airport. I was on the way to my grandmothers funeral with my parents. There was a line of people in front of the seats we were sitting in. We were just waiting, our plane wasn't even there yet. This young lady stood about 2 feet in front of me bitching about the line not moving. Her plane was boarding. I say bitching because she was cussing up a storm. I sat there and listened to her call people names in line and yell at the airport personell and carry on like a brat. She was about 16 or 17 years old. I finally lost it and took a look in her head. She was freaking out because she doesn't like people touching her. From what I saw her uncle had been and still was sexually abusing her. That calmed me down real quick. It also reminded me that we all have our own journey's. You know never know why people act the way they do, so you should give them a little freak out room.
