| Abstract: | Froebel lived at a time when children were considered as something apart from adults, something which needed moulding and forming, something to be used, at best something to be tolerated. This attitude towards children led to violence, arson, revolt, mutiny. The following occurrences in renowned British schools are evidence enough: 1818 Winchester - two companies of troops had to be called in to suppress an uprising of pupils. 1818 Rugby - pupils set fire to desks and books, withdrew to an island which had to be taken by assault by the army. 1783 Eton - Revolt against the headmaster with rooms pillaged and windows broken. |
