“In the most desirable conditions, the child learns to manage anxiety by being exposed to just the right amounts of it, not much more and not much less. This optimal amount of anxiety varies with the child’s age and temperament. It may also vary with cultural values....

—Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)
“A fine-looking mill, but no machinery inside.”
