Goodson asserted that:
, . . neither the autocratic nor the laissez-faire
situation is sufficient for providing children with
the necessary boundaries and the required freedom.

self-secure and self-sufficient. Therefore, they
remain overly dependent upon the teacher« Also,
they possess no real power cither to reject or to
accept new ideas and actions. In the loi© e« fairc
situation, children lack the security of boundaries.
Also, they lack the effective power either to reject
or to accept because ideas and actions cannot be
clear to them (34, p. 143).

pation can be generalized to adult groups (82, pp. 90-93)
