Simone- I think you misread my post- there were other things that made someone qualify (at least in my eyes) as a 'feral'.
I know there are people who aren't so good with spelling etc, and I recognise that they may have their own talents, but there are also a lot who are content to sit on their asses and claim the dole, using their 'uneducation' (usually because they wagged most of it to go drinking and smoking with other ferals) as an excuse to think the world owes them something.
These days, with the amount of education on offer- there is no excuse to be illiterate- especially if you sit back and say 'my lack of education holds me back' - then get up off your ass and go to TAFE. Geez you can even do it in your own home these days.
If you aren't good at spelling or grammar....then like I said- thats perfectly acceptable, and understandable.
And I am the product of a rough neighbourhood, and a rough public primary and high school....I wouldn't call my education 'fortunate'.
