Description
Excerpt from Self-Reliance a Practical and Informal Discussion of Methods of Teaching Self-Reliance, Initiative and Responsibility to Modern Children
The mission of self-reliance is to lead parents and teachers to recognize our new problems and to devise ways and means of solving them. The book is full of practical suggestions for educating chil dren to be self-reliant and competent in the every day situations of life. The author has been a careful student of educational principles and prae tise at home and abroad; she has studied life and education in the great cities, and she is now putting her views of training the young into practise in her country home. Thus her views and her suggestions are based on theoretical and concrete studies, as well as on her every-day experience. It may be hardly necessary to add that in a book like this the author has not thought it desirable to go exhaustively into the discussion of the theoretical principles underly ing her practical suggestions.
