     %CONTROL LESSON LEARN STUDENT TEACH PROF ENEMY+930814

     Because human relationships are essentially reflexive
relationships one person/group cannot control what lessons
are  learned by another person/group under any  particular
circumstances.     Controlling   some   aspects   of   the
circumstances experienced by another person/group will not
control  what  lessons the other person/group  will  learn
from such circumstances.

     What  lessons  are learned in  a  particular  set  of
circumstances depends greatly upon the person/group's:

     1.  Hereditary characteristics,
     2.  History,
     3.  Traditional assumptions, beliefs, attitudes,
     4.  Culture and language,
     5.  Knowledge base,
     6.  Prejudices,
     7.  Views of those in control of the circumstances.

     If  there is an adversarial relationship between  the
teacher and the person/group who is to be taught, then the
teacher is not at all likely to be well informed about all
the above factors which play key roles in determining what
the  other  person/group will learn  from situations which
the teacher tries to control.

     If  there is an adversarial relationship between  the
teacher and the person/group who is to be taught, then  to
the  extent  that the latter knows what the teacher  wants
the learned lesson to be,  because of natural rebellion at
being manipulated, that lesson is not at all likely  to be
learned.

     These   considerations  are  relevant  in   families,
schools,   colleges,   universities,   and  inter-national
relationships  wherever  people try to control each  other
and   try   to  teach  each  lesson   through   unilateral
manipulations  in the absence of open and honest  intimate
relationships.
