panion Mary Heaton worse, continuing
her series of articles entitled THE
New Freedom for Little Children"
further describes the new methods of
education laid down by Montessori, the
celebrated Italian educational genius.
The question most frequently asked by
mothers interested in the Montessori
plan is: What about riscipline?" This
question is met in the Montessori meth
od by the proposition that each home
should have rSsSa.ed within it
certain "publidSe pinion;" that it stand
dards Of conduct for adults as well as
children which each individual in the
household will instinctiveldy recognize
and live up to- Following is an ex-
tract:
while we discuss how to 'discip-
line our children, we seem to forget
that there exists such a thing in the
world as Public Opinion. 1t is not the
arbitrary laws OF the land-laws with
armed force behind them which in
fuence our conduct. 1t is the customs
of the communitl in which We live
which dictate all of our acts and, alas,
most of our thoughts
The same is absolutely true of chill
dren. When one pelads for liberty for
children, one does not mean liberty to
run counter to the public opinion Of
the family; for the family's greatest
good certain things must happen every
day in every household. Every one
must get up in the morning, battle, and
dress; meals must be eaten with more
or less regularity. certain work per
formed and again every one must go
to bed
THE less a child has to discuss these
necessary acts of life with anyone the
more free he is in the true sense Of
the term. A man who is at odds with
the public opinion of his community
concerning elementary decency is not
free at all; he must spend all his time
in fighting. The whole of the civilized
another mans belongings from him;
world is agreed that one may not
snatch another mans belongings from
him; that certain acts of rudeness, if
they interfere with other peoples lib
erty, must not happen So universal
are these beliefs, from China to Rus
STA, that any grown person who VIC
lates them is thought insane.
IF the public opinion Of the home
could be as definite as the public opin-
ion of the community, or that found in
a Montessori school, a child would be
great deal freer than in a home
where the public opinion is so wobbl-
ing and weakened that the children
quarrel with their bath, their bedtime,
their clothes, their food-and their
parents"
