SCHOOLS AS A CAUSE OF BEHAVIOR DISORDERS

/

There are no “cure-all” programs in the schools today for children with behavior disorders. Some behavior problems may owe their very existence to the fact that there is such a thing as formal education.

A CRITIQUE OF THE PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION OF JOHN HOLT, A HOME SCHOOL ADVOCATE

/

"I believe Holt’s philosophy as presented in these arguments demands critical attention, not because it is likely to inaugurate a major home schooling movement, but because it represents and serves to popularize an emerging conservatism that, I will argue, has grave educational implications."
