“Children of eight and nine who love their mothers dearly will cross to the other side of the street when they see her coming, if they happen to be with friends, because to greet or be greeted by their mothers in the presence of peers is to acknowledge having been (and perhaps still being) a baby.” IfsChildrenStillsHappensMotherSidesStreetsBabyCrossesEightNineAcknowledgePeers Author:Dorothy H Cohen
“Nevertheless, no school can work well for children if parents and teachers do not act in partnership on behalf of the children's best interests. Parents have every right to understand what is happening to their children at school, and teachers have the responsibility to share that information without prejudicial judgment.... Such communication, which can only be in a child's interest, is not possible without mutual trust between parent and teacher.” IfsWellsChildrenSchoolParentInterestResponsibilityTeacherShareInformationCommunicationJudgmentHappeningsMutualPartnershipNeverthelessBehalfParents And TeachersSchools And TeachersMutual Trust Author:Dorothy H Cohen
