Hello. My age is irrelavent to this conversation so don't ask. What matters is my opinion and how it is presented - therein lies the skill of debating. If you pick on my spelling mistakes, I will know that you feel the need to hide your own inability to debate or you insecurity about said ability so don't try it.

If you wish to debate/argue with me about this subject, go ahead. Just remember, attack my arguements, not me.

You misspelled "insecurity".

If you are having problems with your spelling, you can download the Google toolbar which has a spell check. I find it quit useful for some harder to spell words.

If you have the toolbar already, go up to where it says ABC/check it has a green tick sign beside it. Click on it and it will show you the mistakes you have made.

Think about bullying.


Now, if someone did that to someone else, in the adult world, what's it called?

Not the actual dictionary definition, what people call it.

Educatory also isn't a word.


Now that someone walked into that, are you happy?

What's this thread about? Do you want to debate the merits and problems of the public education system? Do you want to debate this in the context of how it serves students with Asperger's syndrome and other exceptional needs (e.g., giftedness, learning disability, deafness)?

I thought it was fairly simple.


School:

child-to-child: name calling, throwing objects, physical stuff = bullying.


Now, if that was adult-to-adult (or adult-to-child or even child-to-adult.) those would all be forms of harrassment/abuse.


Hence the educational system 'pansys' words and need to wake up and relaize some things.

It's called harsh words for harsh concepts.

I'm not saying this to provoke you but let you know something. You aren't always clear when you post and reply to people. That leads to people either; a)assuming what you meant wrongly and/or b)replying to you in a way that is argumentative, digressive, problematic.
I don't pick on spelling errors in a forum like this, but I will say that spelling errors are very distracting to me and they are often indicators of hastily written thoughts. Typos are altogether different. Some types of grammar/spelling errors indicate that thoughts aren't original. Also, when someone misquotes then I figure that person isn't really reading the posts.

In a totally different message board, I got in a fight with someone who couldn't spell, couldn't quote me correctly, and didn't understand basic points I was making. She couldn't even understand that she was name-calling. So, that's why people point out errors, because they want to understand what is being said and know that they're posts are understood too.

At the time, I was getting it down hastily. It is incredibly hard to keep tabs on your spelling when your screen's jiggling up and down like mad. (that was the last part of the first post - the editing.

For the first part of the first post, I only had limited time.
