The real problem is 'school' and the fact that *still* our kids are being taught how to thrive in a Victorian world rather than being prepared for the future... which is coming really, really fast.

Though I've never been formally tested this entry on dyslexia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyslexic), especially the characteristics section, reads like my personal psychological profile. Despite this, I like to think that I'm doing OK. Gia – With the correct support these things needn’t be as life limiting as they first appear.

Looking through your posts, you seem to do a good job forcing people to clarify and justify their opinions. If the responses seem to be heavy for one sider versus the other, I would expect you to take on the role of devils advocate to keep the discussion going, and you seem to be doing a good job at that.
