Mel Levine
“When a child can’t seem to control his behavior, there is a very real possibility that some of his attention controls may not be functioning as they should. That is to say, he is not evil, not a bad boy; he just needs to gain control. If you call someone bad long enough, he is apt to turn bad. Accounting for the behavior as a control issue and pinpointing the control(s) in need of repair can enable a child to determine what he has to do to stay out of trouble. I have seen children’s behavior improve markedly when the adult world has stopped making their actions seem criminal.”
Mel Levine, A Mind at a Time

“The idea that men are created free and equal is both true and misleading: men arecreated different; they lose their social freedom and their individual autonomy inseeking to become like each other. DAVID RIESMAN, The Lonely Crowd”

“I worry when we try to make every little cluster of traits into a syndrome, ignoring the toxic stigmatizing effects of being so designated, which can last a lifetime. We could help Doug without forcing him to become a pathological specimen!”

“‎'All we need is a book,' roared Leslie; 'don't panic, hit 'em with a book.”
