My Grandmother and most of the elders I know went to Mt Pleasant and the Lawrence Kansas boarding schools... If you can get them to talk about their school years, the stories are far from pleasant.... My Gram managed to maintain being fluent in the language. But she did not pass it on to her kids or grandkids.... And we now have generations of adults that love their kids. And take care of them physically.. But have no knowledge of how to be emotionally nurturing...I find that to be the greatest loss of all... Barbara --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? New Yahoo!
