Dear Gerald > Loved your Godwin quote, just fancy him being the father of > Mary Shelley. Many thanks. Godwin was, apparently, identified as an 'anarchist' perhaps, today, he would be 'labelled' asa 'radical' -- whoops we're back to 'labelling theory again'!! 8-) > Thought your comment about 'freeing school' was witty. Liked > it. There have been attempts to 'free schools' down the ages -- but most of them seem stifled sooner or later. Sad, but it seems to be what happens as soon as any government takes over the responsibility for 'education'. That, of course, is entirely a personal opinion -- others may disagree. More worryingly, and (perhaps) more germaine to this site is the identification of the increasing suicidal tendencies in even young children with a lack of counselling service except in one or two areas such as Dudley for younger children. ===== Best wishes Paul ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
