Beskrivelse
Parenting without Punishment is a partisan argument on behalf of democratizing childrearing. Greer argues that his approach of Zero-Punishment Parenting is a more humane and effective approach for raising children to become self-disciplined, morally decent, creative and responsible citizens. He builds the case based on his own family experiences as a child and a parent and his studies of historical theories of childrearing and contemporary studies of child development.
A compelling story of American parenting, marriage, and education from a father dedicated to political equality and the equality of gender and generations. Never a manual - always the narration of a personal journey to get the most important things right.
~Sherry Turkle, MIT Professor.
Eschewing all forms of punishment, the book articulates a philosophy of empowerment and trust, where children's intellectual capabilities are nurtured far beyond conventional expectations. Through engaging anecdotes and well-reasoned arguments, it emphasizes creativity, autonomy, and critical thinking, fostering a space where children can say, "You are not my ruler; I am my ruler." This inspiring guide is not just a manual for parenting; it's a manifesto for a more civic-minded, decent, and compassionate society.
~Orlando Patterson, Harvard Professor.
