“The idea that we have to control behavior is a false idea. What we need to do is we need to understand behavior in order to guide behavior in order to get the results that we want. And the results that we want are to raise happy, healthy, self-sufficient or group-sufficient, contributing, happy children into adults.” -Dr. B [25:43]
