And I agree with you, the rhetoric, the testing mania, the No (white middle class pliable) Child Left Behind - it is all infuriating. ginmar, we're done. You've chosen to interpret my remarks in the narrowest possible way and I can't change that. It is painful to be attacked in this way, to have ugly words directed at me, at my parenting and my child. If I've caused you pain I apologize. Ok, PhysioProf, sorry to have misunderstood.

Those of us who will have no choice but to use public schools are glad we amuse you with our concern." When I referred to "hand-wringing rhetoric", I wasn't talking about the legitimate concerns of those who suffer directly from public school indoctrination. I was talking about the rhetoric of those who stand to benefit from improved efficiency of public school indoctrination, and who hide that real goal behind the fake goal of "improving education". “Gosh, physioprof, I thought it was me that was the bourgeois scum here.

I'm truly sorry for your bad experiences. I've worked my whole life too. I've been a victim of violent crime too. I've cleaned up the semen of some asshole in the <i>children's section</i> of a bookstore I worked in. I can't stop you from setting me up as a straw woman, but please don't make assumptions about my life. That is a cheap shot. "Every day I thank my lucky stars that I was not subjected to public schooling." Gosh, physioprof, I thought it was me that was the bourgeois scum here.
