Gimme a break Harlan I find it incredible that you seem to think these are Waldorf goals Educating the whole child right like anyone sets as their goal the education of half a child These are to be sure Waldorf buzz words the kind of language Waldorf brochures are filled with of course But they are meaningless in the framework of an encyclopedia article They are sensationalism They don t deserve mention at all except in Waldorf brochures and that s NOT what we are creating here And really there are lots and lots of examples in which the reality contradicts the surrounding the child with moral goodness you are describing The easiest to point to is that Waldorf teachers read Grimms fairy tales to the children and promote them to parents to read to their children These are the uneditied versions with the grimm stuff in them the types of stories that are filled with immorality and horrible images for young children I can recite examples directly from them here but I m sure everyone knows what I m talking about think Hansel and Gretel and all the immorality that goes on in that one These are definitely NOT themes of moral goodness they are outrageous themes of depravity So again what we have here is brochure language that in this case doesn t even reflect what goes on in Waldorf It needs to come out Setting up more sections and going into greater detail about each of the stated goals is a bunch of hooey as well Every school has fantastic goals for their students just like every parent has wonderful goals for their child This article is NOT about the goals of the Waldorf Schools it is about Waldorf education what it actually is what it actually does what it actually means If you want to state goals and ideals write yourself a brochure this article is not the place for it Sorry
