[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree with the pros above. More cons: -some schools allow bullying, saying that the bullied kid brings it on themself -attracts parents who are overly into the aesthetics of Waldorf -I live in an anthroposophical community for a summer, and a lot of the young adults complained that their education had been incredibly lacking[/quote] We saw one case of bullying in front of us during a tour. There was a girl of about 4 or 5 and she was literally behaving like a feral child and hitting another child and grabbing things. I asked if that was normal and the teacher said she was going through a process of “expressing herself”. [b]It was appalling, the girl would have been taken out of the classroom immediately in a regular school. [/quote][/b] Actually you’d be surprised what goes on in a public school. When a kid has a meltdown, the rest of the class actually has to leave. [/quote]
