Karen A Report post Posted March 30, 2007 I have been a bit outrageous and need to admit to it. The Bishop for our area was on Radio 2 yesterday on Terry Wogan thought for the day.He was talking about parents supporting their children to tackle gun crime and bullying.He said he was keen to listen to the views of people in his diocese .As some here will know Ben is currently out of school due to stress -as a result of events at a church school. Well in a mad few minutes I telephoned the Bishop's office and explained that we are supportive parents who are fighting to do the best for our child.The school is hindering our efforts. Well he was prepared to listen and asked for a copy of our complaint. I went to drop the letter off today and handed the letter to the Bishop in person. Ben cannot believe that I took a letter to the Bishop for him. Karen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
