New York Times,New York Times, 5/25/2024
Both Ms. Faber and Ms. Mazlish were mothers of three living in Roslyn, N.Y., in the late 1960s when they began attending parenting lectures given by the prominent child psychologist Haim Ginott. The author of the influential book “Between Parent and Child” (1965), Dr. Ginott was known for his view, daring at the time, that parents should speak to their children as if they were equals in dignity, instead of scolding or criticizing them as inferiors.
Ms. Faber and Ms. Mazlish were instantly enthralled. “We joined for an eight-week course and we stayed for 10 years,” Ms. Faber said in a 1982 interview with The New York Times.
In his lectures, Dr. Ginott “spoke about methods of communication that could speak to a child’s heart as well as his mind,” Ms. Faber said in 1985, in another Times interview. “New ideas like how to express anger without insult or substitute a choice for a threat, or how to give a child in fantasy what you can’t give in reality.”
