Being Creative: A Mother Speaks.

Kokot, Shirley; Colman, Jane

Roeper Review, v17 n2 p121-23 Dec 1994

The mother of a highly creative girl describes her daughter's openness to experience and sensitivity, examines how adults misinterpret creative aspects of her daughter's being, comments that education could be a liberating medium but is generally a conditioning program, and notes that creativeness means living in essence and arriving at insights about life that transcend knowledge.
