What reading level is The Education of the Child book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The flagellationof the Middle Ages is known to have had such results; and if Icould publish what I have heard from adults as to the effect ofcorporal punishment on them, or what I have observed inchildren, this alone would be decisive in doing away with suchpunishment in its crudest form. It very deeply influences thepersonal modesty of the child. This should be preserved aboveeverything as the main factor in the development of the feelingof purity. The father who punishes his daughter in this ...waydeserves to see her some day a "fallen woman. " He injures herinstinctive feeling of the sanctity of her body, an instinctwhich even in the case of a small child can be passionatelyprofound. Only when every infringement of sanctity (forciblecaressing is as bad as a blow) evokes an energetic, instinctiverepulsion, is the nature of the child proud and pure. Childrenwho strike back when they are punished have the most promisingcharacters of all.
Numerous are the cases in which bodily punishment can occasionirremediable damage, not suspected by the person whoadministers it, though he may triumphantly declare how thepunishment in the specific case has helped.
