		jimiray on Sept 4, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: School is a prison and damaging our kids Another article, just basically saying everything Maria Montessori proved years ago, without actually mentioning Montessori. Education has advanced, we just have refused to adopt it. Just ask Larry Paige or Sergey Brin. I'm really happy that I'm in a profession where I can afford to send my kids to a Montessori school.

He did mention Montessori schools as similar, but that they don't go as far as Sudbury Valley in offering freedom and democratic control to students.
