What a child can do in cooperation today, he can do alone tomorrow.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I thought about how we need to make children feel that there are times in their lives when they need to be alone and quiet and to be able to accept their aloneness.
The only thing an adult can give a child is time.
I tried to do things independently with each child.
The object of teaching a child is to enable him to get along without his teacher.
A child's greatest achievements are possible in play, achievements that tomorrow will become her basic level of real action.
If the child is left to himself, he will think more and better, if less showily. Let him go and come freely, let him touch real things and combine his impressions for himself.
It's very lonely bringing up a child on your own.
Many things we need can wait. The child cannot. Now is the time his bones are formed, his mind developed. To him we cannot say tomorrow, his name is today.
Never help a child with a task at which he feels he can succeed.
Imagine what a harmonious world it could be if every single person, both young and old shared a little of what he is good at doing.
