In her book, Children as Teachers, Margaret Lester describes her personal miraclethe opportunity to found and direct a new-thought pre-school in Honolulu, Hawaii, in the early 1970s. There, in a tiny arena, guilt-free parenting, unconditional love, agreements, choices, and natural consequences ruled. In that environment the children, each in his or her own way resisted, tested, struggled or didnt, and eventually thrived. The stories of the children unfold exactly as Marge experienced them. While often funny and charming, there is plenty to provoke thought. One is captured by Marges amazing ability to isolate her own judgments and fears as a caregiver to provide space for the children to experience the natural results of the choices theyve made. Through these accounts accompanied by Marges thoughts and insights, the reader glimpses the children becoming the teachers and the birth of guilt-free parenting. This short book of stories is easy, entertaining reading and a painless introduction to a thoughtful way of relating to children.
