Talk:Waldorf education

Umm, good start, I guess, but is the "What to do in the event of being enrolled in one" section supposed to be sarcastic? Obviously someone whose parents enrolled them in a Waldorf school wouldn't be able to read, for starters and I doubt their parents would let them have access to the internet, let alone this wiki...

This article is largely a pile of bunk and needs significant re-writing. Mjollnir.svgListenerXTalkerX 04:59, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

I was trapped in one of these places for five years. My parents have finally let me leave, and the only reason I am an educated person is because I am interested in reading.

And yes, the part on 'if you are enrolled in one' is sarcastic. — Unsigned, by: Winttrix / talk / contribs

Alright, then, you are more than welcome to it. The snark on it is actually kind of funny in that light. I have this problem where I don't really "get" jokes so much as deconstruct them to find the logical inconsistency. This is also why my wife is mad at me a lot, because I laugh at pretty much ALL logical inconsistencies. The Foxhole Atheist (talk) 05:11, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
Winttrix, I think you might have missed one of the major points of Waldorf education. How old are you now? Mjollnir.svgListenerXTalkerX 05:14, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

Former alumnus[edit]

Winttrix, what on earth do you mean by calling yourself a former alumnus? (((Zack Martin))) 08:49, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

Conspiracy theories?[edit]

Is it me, or the article is oddly positive insufficiently negative? From what I've read, the schools do appear to be following at least some of Steiner's bullshit, and some schools have taken great pains to bury any mention of the system's founder.--ZooGuard (talk) 10:58, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Huh[edit]

I think my parents tried to enroll me in one of these when I was three or four. I got kicked out after a day. Same with my cousins, IIRC. RoninMacbeth (talk) 19:45, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
