Freedom is the most difficult element to secure under existing condition. i am not an advocate of certain forms of freedom which most adults find unendurable. There should be no enforced respect for grown-ups who should allow themselves to be called fools whenever children wish to all them so.we can not prevent our children from thinking us fools by merely forbidding them to utter their thoughts.

In fact, they are most likely to think ill of us if they dare not say so. Children should not be stopped from thinking freely only because the grown-ups are in the habit of forcing ideas on them.Given the proper opportunities, children sometimes come forward with really remarkable views. If they express opinions on religion or politics or morals they may be met with argument provided it is genuine argument but not if it is only a dogma. The adult may, and should. suggest ideas to children rather than imposing conclusion on them.

It is undesirable to allow grown-up children to lead a life of licence, but it is also undesirable to disallow them free and original thinking and force ideas on them Children sometimes express ideas of original and remarkable worth.Their views on religion, politics or morals should be met with on real ground alone.
