The Plowboy Interview: John Holt / 1980 [!!]

John Holt with children, Author of How Children Learn and many other books on education

"Maybe I'm kind of old-fashioned, but I don't think the currently popular "therapeutic" methods-which involve telling someone, "You're OK, you're really wonderful"-do much good. Tackling a job that seems worth doing, and doing it in a competent manner, is-to my way of thinking-the best way for a person to gain self-esteem."
