The Moral Instruction of Children

"The Moral Instruction of Children" by Felix Adler is a study about teaching kids right from wrong back in the day. It talks about how important it is to give kids good ideas about morals and help them build good habits. The book looks at problems that come up when trying to teach morals fairly in a world where everyone has different beliefs. It starts by saying moral education is super important and involves teaching kids what's right and helping them make good behavior patterns. It also talks about how old-fashioned teaching styles sometimes clashed with newer ideas that focused on personal thinking and moral choices. The author recognizes that schools play a big role in helping kids grow into good people and says that building character should be a main goal of education, instead of just focusing on following rules and getting good grades.
