No teacher has the right to cure a child of making noises on a drum. The only curing that should be practiced is the curing of unhappiness.
The function of a child is to live his/her own life, not the life that his/her anxious parents think he/she should live, nor a life according to the purpose of the educators who thinks they knows best
If the emotions are free the intellect will look after itself
All crimes, all hatreds, all wars can be reduced to unhappiness.
I would rather see a school produce a happy street cleaner than a neurotic scholar.
