I understand completely, Ororo. However, the students are well-accustomed to Manuel's hyperbole at this point and I don't know that his complaints will have much impact on student morale. If you would like to collaborate with Emma regarding an orientation for Manuel, I would be supportive of that. I do know that he has developed friendships with Marie and Shinobi and perhaps you could use them as part of an attempt to alter Manuel's perceptions. I understand that he is struggling with depression right now and having his friends encourage him to greater independance and new perspective can only be a positive step. Please also feel free to approach Leonard regarding this issue.
