Quote

…too often I have seen children taught, encouraged and expected to do what they are basically not ready to do. Too many infants are propped up when they cannot maintain a well-balanced sitting position, or are given a toy which they have neither freely chosen nor can freely manipulate….If infants are ready to do something, they will do it. In fact, when they are ready, they have to do it.
