[QUOTE="ThreeShadows, post: 411560, member: 6370"] Wow, Malika! When you said a village, you REALLY meant it! Five hundred people, a class consisting of 19 pupils? Am I right to assume that a majority of the villagers have been there for generations? I'm starting to understand your fear of labels. You and your son already stand out. You are not a native of the country, you seem to be without family support, raising a son who perhaps looks Maghrebian (my assumption). Right there, you have three labels! I lived 23 years in a small town in Maine. My husband lured me there by telling me I would meet a lot of francos of Québecois origin, lol! We were never accepted by the "natives" because our people had not been there for generations. Everybody knew our business. So, yes, I'm starting to understand your reluctance. Any chance you could move to a larger, more diverse community? [/QUOTE]
