I am beginning to suspect all elaborate and special systems of education. They seem to me to be built up on the supposition that every child is a kind of idiot who must be taught to think.

Children are becoming disobedient... why, because of the lack of rules boundaries and limitations.

I would say that kids are great in many ways, because I think that we are less hampered when it comes to 'this costs too much' or 'that's impossible'.

The problem with children is that you have to put up with their parents.

It's shameful what's happening in this country in terms of what we deny our children.

I feel like in America, we don't have a kid problem. You think about all these issues that these kids are dealing with, we have an adult problem. We have adults that do not place the priority on our kids to get a valuable education.

There is nothing more fundamental than the idea that the government does not have a right to decide when and whether we have children.

How is it that little children are so intelligent and men so stupid? It must be education that does it.

The kids are not brought up to have minds of their own as individuals.

It is sometimes easier to head an institute for the study of child guidance than it is to turn one brat into a decent human being.
