--------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Mandy Moalem <ymgemoalem@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: Urgent Help needed! Hi Everyone, Does anyone here work, or know anyone who works in a democratic school? My son is finishing his fourth year in the regular school system and its like watching a flower die, slowly. He is extremely intelligent (yes, I know I'm his mother and slightly biased), and the school is treating him like he's an outcast. It has got to such a stage these last few weeks that he is even unable to have friends in the school as they are too scared of the fallout. We are thinking of a democratic school as we have heard very good things about them, but if anyone has any better ideas - I am VERY open. In one sentence I can sum up the perfect school as the one that Einstein would have fitted into. Thank you all in advance. Mandy
