What reading level is The Punishment of Children book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The gov- erness and the other children are almost invariably compelled to wait. In the world the penalty of being behind time is the loss of some advantage that one would otherwise have gained. The train is gone, or the steamboat is just leaving its moor- ings, or the good seats in the conceit room are filled; and every one may see that it is the pro- spective deprivation entailed by being late which prevents people from being unpunctual. Should not this prospective deprivation control the chil...d's conduct also? If Constance is not ready at the appointed time the natural result should be that she is left behind and loses her walk.
24 THE PUNISHMENT OF CHILDREN Or, again, a boy is in the habit of recklessly soiling and tearing his clothes. He should be com- pelled to clean them and to mend the tear as well as he can. And if having no decent clothes to wear, the boy is ever prevented from joining the rest of the family on a holiday excursion and the like, it is manifest that he will keenly feel the pun- ishment and perceive that his own carelessness is the cause of it.
