Famous quotes containing the words area and/or councils:
“The area [of toilet training] is one where a child really does possess the power to defy. Strong pressure leads to a powerful struggle. The issue then is not toilet training but who holds the reins—mother or child? And the child has most of the ammunition!”

“How many councils and decrees
Have perished in the simple prayer
That gave obedience to the knee;”
