In her book, The Absorbent Mind first published in 1949, Dr. Montessori
“What we have been able to observe in children under conditions of life designed to help them in their natural development, has shown us very clearly the growth of obedience as one of the most striking features of the human character.”
"Our observations throw much light on this subject." - Dr. Maria Montessori
Obedience is seen as something which develops in the child in much the same way as the other aspects of his character. At first it is dictated purely by the hormic*impulse, then it rises to the level of consciousness, and thereafter it goes on developing, stage by stage, till it comes under the control of the conscious will.
"if we study the natural unfolding of this obedience" - Dr. Maria Montessori
“if we study the natural unfolding of this obedience, we find that it occurs in three stages, or levels. At the first level, the child obeys sometimes, but not always, and this may strike one as capricious, but it has to be subjected to a deeper analysis.” – Dr. Maria Montessori
