They put me in...

Well, it wasn't remedial.

Yeah.

And you're in school and you know you're not stupid.

I was in special ed.

Well, there can't be more embarrassing than that.

So anything now, I don't give a shit, you can't embarrass me.

And it was actually that simple.

When you're in special ed and you're 15 years old and you're in high school and your two brothers are some of the smartest kids from that high school and you have to walk home, you're really good at math.

You just can't read just because of how your brain's wired.

And they put you in special ed, you're like, what the fuck?

I don't know what it was.

My three boys were dyslexic because it does get passed on.

My father was dyslexic.

And when my boys were dyslexic, I put them into this class, this school in the summer called Linda Mood Bell.

They run a marathon on their brains to teach their left back lobe how to read.

It's four hours a day, relentless.

My mom did that to me.

There was no Linda Mood Bell back then.

People call it tiger moms.
