<p>Basing his discussion on Waldorf pedagogy and the insights into the human being on which it is founded, Gabert provides clear explanations of the underlying spiritual development taking place within the young person and manifesting outwardly in sometimes difficult behavior. Gabert gives practical suggestions and advice on balancing the two opposed yet necessary principles of freedom and discipline. Through this sensitive and insightful discussion, readers are led not to take the young person as he or she is here and now, but to work with "what has future in itself and what will some day develop."</p>
