In this episode I cover the Introduction in the book Unconditional Parenting by Alfie Kohnhttp://www.unconditionalparenting.com/up/The most extreme example of operant conditioning is the domination system of government--individuals are told to obey and are punished if they don't do what they're toldAny political philosophy not based on property rights is bound to deny individual needs for autonomy, justice, choice, and respectThe foundation of a free society is to be found in parents who interact with children in life-enriching ways, who connect with feelings and meet needs for respect and choiceTeaching kids to attribute the cause of their feelings to things outside themselves hinders them (and later, as adults) from taking responsibility for their feelingshttp://logicallearning.net/ResponsibilityForFeelings.mp3 (NVC audiobook segment by Marshall Rosenberg)Please join the revised http://completeliberty.comHere's an instructive forum thread...Home> Public Outreach> How do we educate?
