Well Doug I can't agree with you more.  I as a student had a good family
life, did attend a residental school, but did go home every weekend, and
was able to associate with both blind, and sighted children along with
sighted adults, and learned the proper edicate, through upbringing.  If
one attends a residental school, who has neglective parrents, some of
the kids tended to act blind, and callow, when they grew up.  That was
because either they had neglective parrents, or they lived too far away,
and the sighted influence had little benefit.  When they graduated, and
were thrusted into society, they had to make alot of changes.  Also, I
feel that their were those who had bad family lives, that they dreaded
to go home on weekends, and the school was the best thing.  Also as far
as you're little bubble is concerned, it is amazing that their were
those, who had partiall sight, who used to think that they were better
than you and who were popular amoungst the girls, etc. who that their
"shit stunk" who ended up in a sheltered shop doing next to nothing.
Remember in a small residental school, you may be in that great bubble,
but when you get out you're a very very small kog in a wheel, in the
real world.  Lynn
