For Your Own Good : The Roots of Violence in Child-Rearing Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Item not Available

Description

Alice Miller explores the sources of violence within ourselves and the way these are encouraged by orthodox childrearing practices. Challenging the way in which we rationalise punishment and coercion as being for the child's 'own good', she illuminates the cost in compassion and humanity in later life, both in the private and public domain.

Her message is clear: 'people whose integrity has not been damaged in childhood; will feel no need to harm another person or themselves.
