| Reference: Not enough context to say, Reference information: Dr Benjamini Spock.... http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:eLp0V_y... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 50 mins (2011-09-01 18:12:38 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Dr Benjamin Spock's Radical Parenting Advice: Parents, Trust Yourselves! Dr Benjamin Spock absolutely shocked the parenting world when he suggested that parents should forget the long list of rules and 'trust themselves'. He caused further gasps when he stated that "there is no such thing as too much love." Well, what do you know – now parents were not only permitted to love their children, but they were also encouraged to actually show it. As basic as this sounds to us, based on the prevalent theories of the time, this meant a radical and complete shift in parenting philosophies. And to the further horror of committed Behaviorists, Dr Spock actually mentioned the forbidden word: Intuition! He stated, "What mothers and fathers instinctively feel like doing for their babies is best overall." Wow! Dr Spock had stumbled upon what mothers have always known (although they were taught to forget), that parents have an innate ability to know their child. In fact, Benjamin Spock built his theory on the phrase, "You know more than you think you do". "We know for a fact that the natural loving care that parents give their children is a hundred times more valuable than their knowing how to pin a nappy on just right or how to make a formula expertly" (Spock, 1958, pg 15). For his ideas, critics gave him the title "Father of Permissiveness". But, mothers everywhere were breathing a sigh of relief because the previous "one-size-fits-all" parenting was now being traded for a ''know your child and meet their needs" philosophy. The fact that his book has sold over 50 million copies is a testament that parents everywhere were, and are, happy to have an alternative to the Behaviorism methods. |
