The idea of bullying is NOT confined to public schools——but you knew that - it just doesn’t fit your agenda and therefore you are unable to bring yourself to state it.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Regarding non-educational situations: Nothing in my post referred to this. What do you want me to do? I should chase a red herring of your creation? I don’t think so!

Regarding institutionalization:

Why do you think I said, “Do not institutionalize your child” ? Hm? I did not specify government or private. I said “institutionalize”. That means both private and government.

I did say, “Homeschool if you possibly can.” That means do **NOT** institutionalize your child in either a government or private institutional setting. Institutionalization should be a parents very last choice!

However...I did say, if you must institutionalize, look for a **small** private school. Why? Answer: The parent will probably have somewhat more control, and the teachers and principals as well. I think I made it perfectly clear that institutionalization, even in a small private school, was **NOT** an ideal situation for the child. In no way did I suggest that private schools were free of bullying.

Gabz, get used to this idea. It is catching on. I am seeing the idea of “institutionalization” in the writings of some very influential editorialists and, specifically, the leaders of the Exodus Mandate.

Yes, you did -- you just can't see it.

However, the vast majority of posters here are extremely intelligent folks and are quite capable of seeing through your claims of innocence in regard to your tunnel-visioned bulldog disregard of the parental autonomy of others who disagree with you.
