"What is a Steiner school then?"

There's a Wikipedia article on it.

Cod? May i ask a question. Is it your identity now to be a lazy typer. Is it your "brand"?

i dont know what a steiner school is and neither do i care.

in answer to the OP i think that if there is any kerfuffle it will be becuase there is always the implied "the option ihave chosen for my chil is best - ergo the option you chose for your child is shit. I am a good mother, you are a shit mother"

I think cods typing is down to lazy ( cos she used to typ perfectly.

but recently i wondered whether
a) this is a medical condition
b) she has a laptop - i have lap tp and typing on the thing takes harder strokes to hit all the keys to spell.

They've all got big ears. That's why they're pissed off.

oh lololo at 'anthroposophical Benny Hill'

v.good

blimey have just skimmed the thread
blardy hell

Hello from one of the driven and dour individuals posting on the offending Steiner threads. I'm not even a regular Mumsnetter (actually American), just as someone said, drawn to the kerfuffle by an ancient blood feud.

"one sect has the Grail and the others want it must walk across the Land of Moons and Ogres to retrieve it." Yes, it's something like that . . .

Just wanted to say thanks for the laughs. This thread has me rolling. This board is a lot of fun - much less uptight and many more laughs than American moms. Thanks, and sorry for the intrusion.

morning Diana
you can stay

Oh yes you can stay Diana. You quoted me. I like this quoting thing you all have going on.

Welcome Diana. Feel free to bring black crayon drawings of gnomes. Or something.

I'm scared to come on this thread cos you might be rude about anti steiner people, and then I can't quote the steiner gnome things.

Oh please quote away, it's all been great fun today!

I will look after you on this thread, if you go back to the other one and quote me.

Okay?

Then I shall protect you in return for a quote and a bag of old black coins wrapped up in a pale scarf.

I will only quote ludicrous Steinerisms on this thread.

If you want to be quoted yourself, you have to prove yourself

Harsh, but fair.

I want rainbow scarves, and re incarnated black crayons in return, (uneaten ones)

We're rude about Steiner AND anti-steiner people! Hooray! With black crayons on top!!

If anyone's still trying to make sense of it all, one of them finally took pity and gave a summary of the "anti" position :
