  Margaret Mead (1975). “Male and female: a study of the sexes in a changing world”, William Morrow & Co

• Cada hogar se ha reducido a lo estrictamente necesario, más de lo que la mayoría de los primitivos considerarían posible. Sólo las manos de una mujer para alimentar al bebé, contestar al teléfono, apagar el gas bajo la olla que está hirviendo, calmar al niño mayor que ha roto un juguete y abrir las dos puertas a la vez. Es nutricionista, psicóloga infantil, ingeniera, jefa de producción, experta compradora, todo en uno. Su marido la ve libre para planificar su propio tiempo, y la envidia; ella lo ve a él con un horario regular y lo envidia.

• Children not only have to learn what their parents learned in school, but also have to learn how to learn. This has to be recognized as a new problem which is only partly solved.

  Margaret Mead

  Children, Educational, Learning

• If they learn easily, they are penalized for being bored when they have nothing to do; if they excel in some outstanding way, they are penalized as being conspicuously better than the peer group. The culture tries to make the child with a gift into a one-sided person, to penalize him at every turn, to cause him trouble in making friends and to create conditions conducive to the development of a neurosis. Neither teachers, the parents of other children, nor the child peers will tolerate a Wunderkind.
