“In Western society, and particularly in American society, imagination is stulified from infancy. The imaginative child is discouraged and upbraided. He is told that the process is mere dreaming, that it wastes time and leads nowhere. It is said to be "impractical." As the child grows and its imagination inevitably leads it to express unconventional ideas and to try new behavior, it is chided and even viciously punished for such signs of unorthodoxy.” TryingChildrenSaidIdeasDreamGrowsProcessImaginationWasteBehaviorMereWesternConformityWasting TimeImaginativeDiscouragedInfancyAmerican SocietyNon ConformityUnconventionalWestern Society Author:Philip Wylie
