The aim of this paper is to juxtapose the image of mentally ill persons in the world cinematography with the perceptions of this social category in the Polish society. Analysis made by the author was based on the selection of well known movies to compare with some results that are available in the reports published by CBOS (a  Polish Public Opinion Research Centre). In both sources the social isolation of mentally ill people is a key trait of their image, moreover, the way mental illness is shown in movies is relatively stereotypical and departs from scientific knowledge, whereas people interviewed in the surveys regarding their contacts with and attitudes toward the mentally ill individuals reveal their apprehension and willingness to keep a distance.

The issue of public trust in research and teaching raises varied interest and is involved in multiple strands of conflict and environmental conditions. As theorists and academic teachers, general educators teaching participants of educational processes, e.g. trainee teachers, often tend to have limited trust in methodologists who are teach the same subject. Fractality of limited mutual trust generally situates itself on many substantive levels and corresponds to the technology of education, which is revealed in the so-called reliability and geometry of trust concerning the evaluation of the quality of education. The article has the nature of interdisciplinary research inspiration from the geometry of confidence to the fractal theory.

This article is an attempt made to confront educational approaches presented by Plato, Aristotle, and Kant with modern educational system. By referring to the former educational ideas the author wanted to draw attention to the sources of inspiration and educational concepts. The paper draws particular attention to the role of the teacher because there is no doubt that only the righteous, educated, intelligent and responsible man can be an educator.

The technique is based on different principles than the Nature is. It may complement or assist the Nature but it cannot replace it without reducing the richness of the phenomenon of life. Similar restrictions apply to the contact with people. Psychologists claim that the number of people with whom a person is able to establish a real relationship, is limited to 150 persons. Excess of contacts leads to superficiality and temporariness. The discovery that life partner or family members are involved in compulsive or inappropriate online erotic behavior causes a shock. Partners are then in a very difficult position, they don’t know how to behave, what method of operation to adopt. The most common reactions include: attempt to take responsibility of the loved ones, attempts “to deserve the love”, pushing their own needs on the back burner of their interests, strong emotional attachment to a partner with exclusion of admitting the existence of the disease, loss of self-identity and lack of perception of own feelings and needs. All of these indicate the existence of so-called codependency to your partner. In fact the addiction affects not just one person, but the functioning of the entire family
