Book excerpt: Excerpt from Phelps and His Teachers In the following sketches the aim of the author has been to bring teacher and patron to a better understanding of the child, and incidentally of each other. Most of our troubles arise from misunderstandings, followed by hasty acts and words. It is so easy to misunderstand a child because he has such a limited power of expression. He often stumbles in his effort to understand and master things - often expresses thoughts he does not have, and does things he does not mean to do. In a measure this is also true of his grown up friends. So it follows that complaints are frequent - the child against the teacher and the teacher against the child; the patron against both, and vice versa. Few of us are willing to concede to another an individuality that differs from our own. This arrogancy of spirit leads us to tyrannize over our weaker friends with a desire to make them conform to our notions of what they should be.
