The Punishment Of Children (1922)

The Punishment of Children is a book written by Felix Adler in 1922. The book explores the topic of disciplining children and the effectiveness of punishment as a means of correcting behavior. Adler argues that punishment should not be used as a means of revenge or to inflict pain on the child, but rather as a way to teach the child the consequences of their actions and to help them develop a sense of responsibility and self-control. The book also delves into the psychological and emotional effects of punishment on children and how it can lead to feelings of resentment and rebellion. Adler suggests alternative methods of discipline, such as positive reinforcement and setting clear boundaries and expectations. The Punishment of Children is a thought-provoking read that challenges traditional notions of discipline and encourages parents and educators to approach discipline in a more compassionate and effective way.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
