| Previously, parents were afraid of
mistakes. Fear was contested in religion,
politics and education. Children were taught by
"Do not do that" and "Do not do
the other". Religion and politics were
integrated in western medieval times. Childbirth
taboos, witches, sexism, torture are side effects
of a society ruled by force and terror. |
Mysticism
was a common practice in medieval times. No one
was allowed to speak against the King or against
the Upper Social classes. Teachers used to drill
the children with instruction. There was no fear
of making mistakes. Meanwhile,
monarchy was either been abolished or given less
importance.

This type of education nowadays is
not popular. The most important reason is not
that we are more sympathising with women, working
classes, children and the weak. We are trying to
involve all the parts in the society, because
economically it is more effective. An education
by force is not updated with the needs of the
modern world. |
