Text Quotes
We as a nation need to be reeducated about the necessary and sufficient conditions for making human beings human. We need to be reeducated not as parents--but as workers, neighbors, and friends; and as members of the organizations, committees, boards--and, especially, the informal networks that control our social institutions and thereby determine the conditions of life for our families and their children  (Urie Bronfenbrenner Quotes) In order to develop normally, a child requires progressively more complex joint activity with one or more adults who have an irrational emotional relationship with the child. Somebody’s got to be crazy about that kid. That’s number one. First, last and always.  (Urie Bronfenbrenner Quotes) Every child needs at least one adult who is irrationally crazy about him or her  (Urie Bronfenbrenner Quotes) Thus if we know a child has had sufficient opportunity to observe and acquire a behavioral sequence, and we know he is physically capable of performing the act but does not do so, then it is reasonable to assume that it is motivation which is lacking. The appropriate countermeasure then involves increasing the subjective value of the desired act relative to any competing response tendencies he might have, rather than having the model senselessly repeat an already redundant sequence of behavior  (Urie Bronfenbrenner Quotes) In order to develop normally, a child requires progressively more complex joint activity with one or more adults who have an irrational emotional relationship with the child. Somebody’s got to be crazy about that kid. That’s number one. First, last and always  (Urie Bronfenbrenner Quotes) Particular attention should be given to the opportunities which the environment presents or precludes for involvement of children with persons both older and younger than themselves  (Urie Bronfenbrenner Quotes) There is no more critical indicator of the future of a society than the character, competence, and integrity of its youth  (Urie Bronfenbrenner Quotes) In the planning and designing of new communities, housing projects, and urban renewal, the planners both private and public, need to give explicit consideration to the kind of world that is being created for the children who will be growing up in these settings. Particular attention should be given to the opportunities which the environment presents or precludes for involvement of children both older and younger than themselves  (Urie Bronfenbrenner Quotes) Like the sorcerer of old, the television set casts its magic spell, freezing speech and action, turning the living into silent statues so long as the enchantment lasts. The primary danger of the television screen lies not so much in the behavior it produces, although there is danger there, as in the behavior it prevents: the talks, the games, the family festivities... through which much of the child’s learning takes place and through which his character is formed. Turning on the television set can turn off the process that transforms children into people  (Urie Bronfenbrenner Quotes) No society can long sustain itself unless its members have learned the sensitivities, motivations and skills involved in assisting and caring for other human beings  (Urie Bronfenbrenner Quotes)
