I have started re-reading John Taylor Gatto again, it was the very thing I needed to soothe my recent run-in with a book I picked up at the library called Family Learning that threw me into a panic over not making every second a delve into educational endeavors.
The quote I liked most was "When children are given whole lives instead of age-graded ones in cell blocks, they learn to read, write, and do arithmetic with ease, if those things make sense in the kind of life that unfolds around them."
I know that. I do. So why, after ten years of this, am I still playing second guess with myself?
