Who needs Ed Balls, Gill Kilner on categories of Home Educator

I am very glad to see Gill blogging again, I have learnt so much from her careful analysis over the years, I am however appalled at what has driven her to the keyboard!

It has come to my attention that, according to a well-known fellow home educator, we are all categorised as follows:

• "Pleasantly mad but thinking and competent;
• The Real Loonies aka two short planks;
• The God squad (very strict religious and we barely ever talk to them or hear of them);
• Fluffy (very autonomous but a little vague);
• Yes sir no sir (UK homeschoolers and their ilk who do everything they are told by the LA and live in a bubble);
• The pioneers (people like xxxxx [name deleted] who were doing it ages ago);
• The last lot (xxxx, xxxxx, [more names deleted] etc who were us 10 years ago); and..."
