Has anyone here heard of the home ed review?

I've written something about it in Who Teaches Whom. I did honestly try to give it my most charitable interpretation but at some point in the next few days I expect I'll post something else too. I do feel that if I want anyone who agrees with the review to listen to me I can't point out its worst and most damaging flaws, which hurts somewhat.

I'm not saying the view isn't valid, or that it's not frustrating when people don't listen to you. Both of these things are true. But sometimes people are just disagreeing with you because they disagree. They're not dismissing you as hysterical because they're trying to maintain dominant privilege and silence you, which is what ailbhe's comment above implies to me.

I know what you're saying, I do.

But I'm still smarting from a bunch of ostensibly intelligent people not so much trying to maintain dominant privilege over me as sticking their fingers in their ears and going "la la la we can't hear you even say the p word" and then trying to pass it off as a joke.

So I'm inclined to be open minded.
