Description

Child Versus Parent Stephen Wise Child Versus Parent Some Chapters on the Irrepressible Conflict in the Home Stephen Wise atmosphere of our children’s life and home. That this involves care of the bodily side of child-being goes without saying, but, as we have in another chapter pointed out, this stress seems to be needless. The primary and serious responsibility of parents is bound up with the education of a child. And the first truth to be enunciated is that parents can no more leave to schools the intellectual than to priest and church the moral training of a child. I remember to have asked a father in a mid-Western city to which it had been brought home that its schools were gravely inadequate–why he, a man of large affairs, did not set out to remedy the conditions. His answer was, “I do my duty to the schools when I pay my school taxes.” This was not only wretched citizenship but worse parenthood and still worse economics We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.
