Quote
Children find optimum nurturance when adults are able to adapt the learning situation to the needs of the child rather than force the child to meet institutional requirements. Too often this isn’t the case. We know children who are dulled or oppressed by a system that makes them feel lesser. Any highly controlling top-down structure, whether school or authoritarian family, has difficulty adapting when faced with someone as changeable, promising, infuriating and loving as a growing child.
