ROLE OF FREEDOM AND DISCIPLINE-------- Freedom of education is the right for parents to have their children educated in accordance with their religious and other views,allowing groups to be able to educate children without being impended by the nation state.Discipline I'd the practice of training people to obey rules or codes of behavior,using punishments to correct disobedience.A training which corrects the mental faculties or moral character. Freedom and discipline are two words that are not usually used together at least in regard to children.freedom and discipline cannot be given together .It is generally understood that children can only behave when strict discipline is imposed on them.But according to Maria Montessori freedom and discipline go hand in hand.In traditional schools discipline is imposed by the teacher on the child.The child's feelings and motives do not matter to the teacher.The child must only do what the teacher say.Teacher control through commands and orders for which discipline cannot be achieved.In the beginning the child needs to be taught discipline with our help and care.The child needs to experience the freedom ,move at his own will and to choose his own activities.It is to train the child how to control the muscles and co ordinate his movements mentally and emotionally as he practice thinking through problems.Freedom requires just a few simple rules in which the child needs to be explained in what way to behave in different situations.at first it is necessary to guide the parents not to enforce their limits and let the child grow naturally.An individual should learn by trial and error.It is in this way through freedom that the child learns in his own way.He learns how to discipline himself how to control his body and movements and how to think and how to be responsible person,who is respectful of himself and others.
