David also earned an honorary Doctorate in Science at the Rhode Island College in 1987.
A professor at Tufts University, his books — The Hurried Child, The Power of Play and Miseducation — informed early childhood education professionals of the possible dangers of incorporating elementary school curriculum into the very early years of a child's life.[1] By doing so, he argued, teachers and parents alike could lapse into developmentally inappropriate instructional and learning practices that may distort the smooth development of learning.
He is associated with the belief of decline of social markers.[2
