Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Handicaps of Childhood
IT is my hope that this book will be read as a com panion-volume to Psychology and Parenthood, it being designed to amplify and supplement that earlier work. Its general aim, accordingly, is to present additional evidence in support of the central doctrine of Psychology and Parenthood, namely, that, in view of the discoveries of modern psychology with regard to individual development, the mental and moral training of children by their parents ought to be begun earlier, and be carried on more intensively, than is the rule at present. But whereas in Psychology and Parenthood the em phasis was chie?y on the importance of early mental training, the chief concern of the present book is to demonstrate the importance of' early training in the moral sphere.
