A Modern Teacher Educates Children To Value

Treat A Child As Though He Already Is The Person He's Capable Of Becoming.

How Can We Help A Child Change From Undependable To Dependable, From A Mediocre Student To A Capable Student, From Someone Who Won't Amount To Very Much To Someone Who Will Count For Something. The Answer Is At Once Both Simple And Complicated: We Treat A Child As If He Already Is What We Would Like Him To Become.

I Can Be A Tool Of Torture Or An Instrument Of Inspiration. I Can Humiliate Or Heal. In All Situations, It Is My Response That Decides Whether A Crisis Will Be Escalated Or De-escalated And A Child Humanized Or Dehumanized.

Happiness... Is Not A Destination: It Is A Manner Of Traveling. Happiness Is Not An End In Itself. It Is A By-product Of Working, Playing, Loving And Living.

To Be Himself, One Neeeds To Be Free From The Pressure Of Evaluative Praise
