Difficult Children: There Is No Such Thing - Paperback

by Henning Kohler (Author)

Here is an articulate appeal for the transformation of educational thinking. Today there is a growing sense of crisis in education and child rearing. This concern arises in part because of the increasing number of children diagnosed with so-called behavioral disorders or otherwise classified as difficult children.

Henning K hler asks: Can children be called "difficult," or is it, in fact, the overall state of social consciousness that is becoming more difficult for children? He questions accepted thinking and outlines a spiritually deepened view for educating and raising our children.
