The Washington, D.C.-based National Education Association (NEA), the largest teachers' union and perhaps the most vocal critic of homeschooling, contends that home-education advocates are too dismissive of the socialization benefits provided by public schools.

Yes, I'm dismissive of teen pregnancies, drug use, rampant socialism, anti-Christian sentiment, and the homosexual agenda. If that's public school socialization, you can keep it! Kudos to Chick-A-Fil for their efforts!

dismissive somehow equals "absolute disagreement" to the NEA.

How's that for Orwellian newspeak?
