Requesting Parents' Assessment of Hyde School
Anonymous:
I would appreciate some sharp analysis. It's one thing to say Hyde School is a cult, AA, Synanon, etc. etc., and another to argue your point. I'm a little too lazy to do everyone's analysis for them. Unsupported opinions fall stillborn from this forum.

One way to do this would be to write a critical article that included interviews with dissatisfied former students and family members as well as material from people who passed through Hyde and feel positive about the experience.
I'd be willing to write such an article, and have posted to that effect on this site. So far the response has beenn limited.

Gary, I am willing to tell the story of our family at Hyde as long as our names are not mentioned. I have spoken to you about this and feel confident you will respect my privacy.
How about the rest of you posters stepping up to the plate. As long as names are not mentioned there shouldnt be a problem. You are sharing your stories on this website which is public, so there is very little difference putting it in another form of print. One person mentioned a liability issue. There is no liability issue unless you would make up a bunch of lies. I have already checked this out with an attorney.
I enjoyed speaking to Gary and you will too. He is a professional and is respectful of my request for anonymity

thank you for this... of course I will respect the privacy of any who choose to remain anonymous. If there are folks tracking this link who are unabashed fans of Hyde... please contact me!! We need a balanced overview of the school... the article I plan on writing will frankly address the concerns that many who have passed through Hyde have. But those who look in the rear view mirror and feel that the time they spent there was all, or overwhelmingly, positive, need to be heard from as well.

Gary,
My writing something would be like reviewing Ford based on a Pinto test drive. My experiance is 30 years old.
It was really instructive to read some of the recent posts. The socialogic post was really interesting. It confirms some of the patterns I observed there. Cohersive Persuation may not be bad in and of itself. If it was used in a controlled manner toward a good end it might not be bad. It was fasinating that people had studied other communities like hyde and had named the social dynamics. The video link that some one posted was intersesting also. Hyde is onion like.
