True.
Wife had our son normally, then breastfed only, for five months.
Kid was almost never sick, only recall one case of strep that he took the ubiquitous childhood pink amoxicillin for, and recovered fast. Strong grown man now, almost 30, no childhood constant ear infections (daycare disease!), healthy as a horse.
Her own MOTHER (who is a dumbass) gave her a hard time about breastfeeding.
Thank God for my stubborn wife.

Harvard donates Jeffrey Epstein cash to victim groups, says some faculty asked to resume accepting money from sex criminal in 2013

::: Harvard University said it has donated nearly $200,937 remaining from a total of $9.1 million in gifts from convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein to groups that support victims of sex trafficking and assault.
::: The school said a review found that after it refused to accept more donations from Epstein starting in 2008, the year he was convicted of sex crimes in Florida, some Harvard faculty unsuccessfully tried to get the university to resume taking money from Epstein in 2013.
::: Epstein, a former friend of Presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, was arrested last July on federal charges of child sex trafficking.
::: He killed himself in a Manhattan jail last August while awaiting trial.
Harvard University said Friday that it has donated more than $200,000 remaining from a total of $9.1 million in gifts from convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein to groups that support victims of sex trafficking and assault.
At the same time, the Ivy League school revealed that some Harvard faculty unsuccessfully tried to get the university to resume taking money from Epstein in 2013, which was five years after the school stopped considering donations from him and five years after he had pleaded guilty to sex crimes in Florida.
Harvard President Lawrence Bacow said in a statement that a full review of the now-deceased Epstein’s donations to the university confirmed that the wealthy investor, who never attended Harvard, had donated that $9.1 million in combined gifts from 1998 through 2008, “to support a variety of research and faculty activities.”
The review found that no gifts were received from Epstein following his conviction in 2008 in Florida on state charges, one of which involved soliciting sex for pay from an underage girl.
The report, overseen by Harvard’s general counsel, Diane Lopez, found that even after his conviction and subsequent 13-month stint in jail, “Some members of the Harvard community continued their relationships with Epstein,” Lopez noted in a letter to Bacow released Friday.
“In 2008, shortly after taking office as President, Drew G. Faust was asked to consider a new gift from Epstein,” Lopez wrote.
“Though she had not heard of him at the time, after she was briefed on the nature of the allegations against him, she determined that Harvard should no longer accept gifts from him.”
Lopez also wrote, “In 2013, several faculty members requested that Harvard reconsider accepting donations from Epstein.”
“That request was put before then-Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Michael D. Smith, who, after being briefed about Epstein, reached the same conclusion as President Faust, and denied the request to entertain the possibility of gifts from Epstein,” Lopez wrote.
“In his interview, Dean Smith explained that he concluded at the time that it would be inconsistent with Harvard’s commitment to address sexual assault and harassment at our institution to accept gifts from Epstein,” Lopez wrote.
Harvard’s endowment last year was valued at more than $40 billion, making it the largest endowment of any university in the United States.
Bacow, in his statement Friday, said, “The report issued today describes principled decision-making but also reveals institutional and individual shortcomings that must be addressed — not only for the sake of the University but also in recognition of the courageous individuals who sought to bring Epstein to justice.”
Epstein, a former friend of Presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, as well as of Britain’s Prince Andrew, was arrested last July on federal charges of child sex trafficking.
“I profoundly regret Harvard’s past association with him. Conduct such as his has no place in our society,” Bacow said at the time.
Bacow then also asked Lopez to review the millions of dollars in donations Epstein had made to the school, as well as related issues.
Bacow said that a “review found that $200,937 of gifts [to Harvard] received from Epstein remained unspent.”
“In line with the commitment I shared in September, those funds have been divided equally between My Life My Choice, based in Boston, and Girls Educational & Mentoring Services (GEMS), based in New York,” Bacow wrote.
“These organizations support victims of human trafficking and sexual assault, and Harvard is proud to support their important and valuable work,” he added.
Harvard said in mid-April that it would not “seek or accept” $8.6 million allocated to the school by a federal coronavirus package after Trump criticized the award.
“Harvard did not apply for this support, nor has it requested, received or accessed these funds,” the university said in a statement.
The irony of Harvard with its $40 billion endowment making a big deal out of donating $200,000 to charity is unbelievable.
Somebody check my math because I'm terrible at numbers, but doesn't that come out to 0.0005% of $40 billion?
Five ten-thousandths of a percent.
This is a Harvard telling the world to go to hell.
Why don't they fly over a ghetto in their helicopter and toss a $20 out the door?
