PSYchology

Italian teacher Grazia Honegger Freshko about parenthood as creativity.

If this is a manual, it is not for those who expect to receive ready-made instructions and obediently follow them. The Italian teacher Grazia Honegger Freshko categorically objects to the subordination of parents to the opinion of any authorities, insisting that parenthood is always a living, momentary creativity. If only because a child from the moment of his birth is already an individual. That is why, for example, the exact daily routine or ignoring the crying of a baby is nothing but violence against him. Developing the ideas of his teachers and colleagues, the wonderful educators Maria Montessori and Adele Costa Gnocchi, the author suggests that parents, first of all, follow nature, listen to their body and spirit and consciously respond to the needs of the child at every particular moment. A very moving, intelligent and inspiring book. Published at the expense of readers in the unique publishing house «People’s Book».

Folk book, 368 p.
