Also, it is the total lack of understanding English properly I guess, to tell where something said is nasty and something is actually quite nice that amazes me, I think he is so overwhelmed by his personal hate of everything foreign, he can’t even read between the lines. amazing.

Hey,
I have received much more insulting and aggressive comments from our mutual friend Atilla. Please contact me and I will share my thoughts and even tell you what he said. If he managed to take an offense in what you said, imagine what someone like me, a completely outspoken British azeri does to him?!! His comments, by the way have nothing whatsoever to do with him protecting azeri women. Come on! It is men like him that would love to see those women put as low down as they can. It is the gender issue that he clearly gets annoyed about, and I guess the best we could do, until I am rich to hire a hacker to find out who he is and destroy his PC …. is ignore the”dude”

I don’t think there is enough to go on here. Your right in that it’s loud, it’s just loud. If the letter had come from an Azerbaijani woman then i believe a little more could be read into the comment. This was just a misunderstanding, obviously this guy wasn’t reading your post from the standpoint of a teacher, he viewed it from a much broader and culturally critical view, and that’s just too bad. Theirs a lot of us getting a lot of good out of your posts, don’t let some bad steal your energy from that.

Hi, Jeff– You have just learned a lesson that most parents and others who work with children and young people usually learn– namely, that what you want for your children is not necessarily what they want for themselves. That can be a big disappointment the first time around. At least you gave this young lady a chance, and maybe opened her eyes to later opportunities. Chin up!! Grammy
