Excerpt from The Education of the Child
Neither harsh nor tender parents suspect the truth expressed by Carlyle when he said that the marks of a noble and original tempera ment are wild, strong emotions, that must be controlled by a discipline as hard as steel. People either strive to root out passions altogether, or they abstain from teaching the child to get them under control.
To suppress the real personality of the child, and to supplant it with another personality continues to be a pedagogical crime common to those who announce loudly that education should only develop the real individual nature of the child.
They are still not convinced that egoism on the part of the child is justified. Just as little are they convinced of the possibility that evil can be changed into good.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a child-rearing guide for parents and educators. The author argues that the traditional methods of discipline, such as spanking and harsh punishment, are ineffective and harmful to children. Instead, the author advocates for a more gentle and understanding approach, based on the idea that children are naturally good and that their misbehavior is often a result of unmet needs or a lack of understanding. The book provides practical advice on how to raise children with a strong sense of self-worth, empathy, and cooperation. The author draws on the latest research in child development and psychology to support their arguments and provides real-life examples to illustrate their points. This book is a valuable resource for parents and educators who want to create a more positive and nurturing environment for children.
