wilderduck-I'm not a member of twitter but thanks for thinking of me.

Indeed, TheSmith. A very long thread.

Hey what an amazingly long thread.
And well worth a read!

mimsum posted near the beginning of the thread.

Where do I find postings about mimsum?

Fathers always welcome

Sadly that's true. I am still reeling from mimsum's experiences.

And some fathers too perhaps!
Seriously though I had not realised quite how stuck in a time warp the schools are. Not just regarding racism but also disabilities.

Hi TheSmith - I really do hope that the mothers who have talked about their experiences here have felt supported in that way

As a parent who once had children in a steiner school i am very interested in this thread. Amazing that there is a forum where people are able to describe their experience and be supported so well.

"mommybuddy - you're clearly not a critic of SW education."

Maybe I don't know enough about SW to criticize more professionally, but I'm willing to learn. I just pulled my children out of Waldorf because those people were talking so weird in private they made my head spin, and I didn't want my kids to become spinheads and pinheads.

I've just been called a moron here too, but that's ok because I'm an adult. I hope you don't call your children such things though.
