Young and school AB - Contemporary debate over the school contains an element of discussion on the lack of proportionality between requirements and freedom, punishment and reward, proximity and distance, spontaneity and rationality. Attention was paid to the role of student’s well-being, his ability to accept successes and failures. There is even a new phenomenon,  hich is the dependence of charges on praise, related to such phenomena as “emotional addiction”, “drug of love”, psychological poisoning “which is associated with a new understanding of punishment in upbringing. A young person, as an addicted to praise, develops an unrestrained need to appreciate, recognize, admire and think positively about oneself. He expresses this in his statements to parents, teachers and peers, seeking positive reinforcement. They become a source of  obsession and stagnation in personal development. Addicted to the praise, the young man is looking for pleasure in themselves, which makes him often unable to care for others and establish a real relationship  ith them. The quality of society not only depends on education, but it also testifies to it. To a very large extent, it depends on its shape whether in the future students will be only efficient tools in the hands of rulers and employers, or whether they will become independent individuals with high intellect, creative and aware of their place in the world.
