If you haven’t read John Taylor Gatto’s The 7-Lesson Schoolteacher, do so now. It’s available to read online at the link above.
Gatto is a former 3-time New York City Teacher of the Year. If you are intrigued by the above link, go out and buy Dumbing Us Down. The 7-Lesson Schoolteacher is a chapter from that book.









I’ll check that link out, thanks. Congrats on the baby! I just saw the twitter below. Sounds like it went pretty well! I had mastitis and I am very wary of antibiotics except when absolutely necessary so I swallowed one whole garlic clove (can slice in half for easier swallowing) three times a day and that completely cleared the infection starting the first day.I had the whole red/hot/rashy thing going on. Baby didn’t seem to mind if the milk tasted like garlic. I think I took it for 2 or 3 days, plus I nursed from different angles which also helps. Have fun and enjoy your baby!
I meant to add that it works great for thrush too. Any infections, really. I have been using it for a tooth infection while waiting for a dentist to fill the hole. Amazing stuff.
Yay!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats on the baby and glad the birth was fast, hopefully easy, surely glorious. I’m so happy for your family!
Happy Baby arrival!
