Difficult Children – There is No Such Thing: An Appeal for the Transformation of Educational Thinking

This book serves as a guide to both parents and teachers for dealing with children. It comes to us at a time when there is great uneasiness from the increasing numbers of children demonstrating so-called behavioral disorders who are being classified as “educationally difficult”; Kohler protests against the present societal labeling that makes life unbearable for children. He challenges these accepted patterns of thought and outlines a spiritually deepened concept of education and upbringing that is truly refreshing. Every parent and teacher will benefit from this book.
