For an Hour and a Quarter did we continue in this unfortunate situation – Sophia fainting every moment and I running mad as often.

It is as if to say: if these are not valued - if these forms of wanting and feeling and speaking and doing - are not cultivated and encouraged and rewarded in the child, then the child will be mad.
