I suspect that nuns were just as individual as any of us. Some beautiful human beings, others those who chose the wrong path and needed help, or would have needed it regardless. My brothers attended a boys school taught by Brothers. From what they told me, there were some who would as soon knock you down the stairs with their fist as look at you if you didn't toe the line.

Fran,
You're right, I did forget the nuns. My friend Mary and her 5 brothers had
some terrible tales.
She also was expected to become a nun. I wonder if she ever did? I lost
track of her in the 60's.
I occasionally do some volunteer work with a group of local nuns. They're
very much different from the ones that terrorized kids in the 50's. Most of
them don't wear habits, and are definitely not the grim souls we knew.
