Toksyczni rodzice wszystkich czasów i narodów

Infanticides of antiquity, ruthless clubs of the Middle Ages, dubious educational practices of modern times... Humanity has made many mistakes before arriving at the contemporary concept of respect for the child. Numerous books on psychology have been written about toxic... upbringing. The uniqueness of this publication lies in the fact that the author approaches the topic not from the perspective of psychology, but from a historical standpoint, analyzing pedagogical theories and practices of past eras. How did they get rid of "unwanted" children in the ancient world? What methods did medieval scholastics use to overcome the "inherent sinfulness" of the little human? What terrible lullabies did Russian mothers sing to their infants? How did idealist romantics try to correct real children to suit an invented ideal? What was the ideal "true pioneer" supposed to be like and what happened to those who did not fit into the scheme?
