Empowering the Gifted and Intense Child

Abstract

“In order to believe in justice, the child must be raised with justice. In order to trust others, he must be trusted. He must be expected to understand, not only to obey. As he develops controls from within, outer controls must recede. In order to be able to shape his own destiny, the child must learn the process of interaction with other people—a process based on justice, not power, and he must learn the process of decision making along with all academic skills and concepts.”
