Because you come off like Tom Cruise railing about Brooke Shields on the Oprah show. I'm not sure that the Church of Scientology is currently looking at that episode at a real big PR coup for them."

I don't watch broadcast TV. I have heard of Oprah. Tom Cruise is one of my favorite scientologist. He was really good in Magnolia and Collateral.
So are you really concerned that I am having an adverse effect? I mean are you a Hydite? Because if you are and you have a genuine concern I will stop.

"Your experience IS just as valid as mine and I never said it wasn't. You are right. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions about Hyde and everyone had different experiences there. Some people breeze through, some actually like it, others end up doing drugs, having sex with teachers, going to AA meetings and getting high while out, and others hate the place so much they run as fast as they can.
I personally have gained a lot from this website. It has helped validate the way I felt while at Hyde. It is also nice to see that some parents and faculty have remorse for participating in something that has been harmful for some. Hopefully you saw that post from a former faculty member who speaks of her remorse and shame.
To me what is important is that the potential parents out there be well informed and base their decision on the truth. IMHO getting the typical tour from one of the poster kids at Hyde is not a true example of Hyde. Websites like this are important as well as a good educational consultant. It would also be nice if Hyde would allow potential parents to sit in on a seminar, and also in one of Joe Gauld's meetings. This truly will give parents a clear picture of what Hyde is and what lies ahead for them. Then and only then can they make a smart decision that best suits their family. I don't believe in spending $40,000 for surprises only to find out you can't get your money back."

I saw it. When was she there? Was she ever there? The prose style is very similar to the recent post proporting to be from a parent. I defy any of you to name the years you were there and four staff members, beside Joe, Mal,Lauri and Paul. Go Ahead.
I calling you out.

I was at Woodstock several years ago. You want names? McCrann, Dubinsky, Felt, Gauld (sometimes), Schuler, McMillan, Murdock, Bertshy, Champney, Coleman, Smith, Cavalo, Murphy, Neal, Gregory, Levy, Racine, Warnick . . . Should I keep going?
I had an awful experience at the school. Some of these people were okay, but lots of the staff weren't. People outside of Hyde should only know what really goes on inside. I think few parents would send their kids to Hyde if they knew the truth."

Thank you. That was refeshing. I know some of those folks you mentioned and think that some of them are genuinely convinced that Hyde has the right approch to help people. I is also good to hear that you experience was not all negative.

3. Teacher quoted in Time magazine, addressing a student with the question, "Do you realize that you're a gutless chameleon?" This developed character in the student to whom the question was directed by teaching him the meaning of "Concern for Others."
4. Teacher who instilled academic "Curiosity" in his students by regularly storming out of the class because their attitude was so bad that they didn't deserve to have him there (and he needed could go back to his office and finish out the athletic schedule).
