For what it's worth, if anything, I think you totally overreacted and were the first one to say anything rude. Her initial post wasn't "OMG UNSCHOOLING IS STUPID AND YOU ARE STUPID AND ARRRG", it was "hey, I know nothing about this - it sounds really weird, but I'm curious, can you fill me in?". Calling something absurd is hardly calling it stupid.

And anyway, I don't think it's totally necessary to correct a person's grammar. Of course, it's not bad to do so either. But saying "do you have a grasp of the English language" is just an unnecessary, rude personal attack.

Sorry that I don't agree with you on this, but I felt it important to say so.... Please don't get pissed with me.
