Dreikurs said, "There are no bad children, only discouraged ones". These books are about encouraging children in ways that help them overcome behavior problems. I've heard claims by Montessorians that Adler studied with Montessori, and claims by Adlerians that they only met once, speaking through a translator. Either way, they were close in age (Adler was six months older than Montessori), and shared some important basic ideas about the emerging field of developmental psychology, including the importance of observing children in natural settings where they are free to make choices. Dreikurs worked closely with Adler. Kathryn Kvols was influenced by Dreikurs. Faber and Maxlish were influenced by the work of Haim Ginott. Donna Bryant Goertz is a master Montessori teacher.
