Abstract
Going by the statement made by Jung, it seems
that life challenges us in more ways than one,
giving us an opportunity to reflect upon ourselves.
Let us consider a case on hand to understand this
further.
A nine year old child walked into the lives of 15
adults last August (2012) at Azim Premji School,
Udhamsinghnagar. The profile of the child at the
time of admission was –
l
Very
little sense of schooling, its requirements
and demands
l
Clinically diagnosed as child with low IQ level
l
Rules, expectations and routines did not mean
much to her
l
Challenged not only academically but also
socially and behaviorally
l
She was not refined in her manners with peers
l
Impulses ran high
l
Got aggressive at times
l
Could not sit in one place
l
Snatched things away from others
l
