Adolf Hitler, die deutsche Mutter und ihr erstes Kind

Adolf Hitler demanded in 'Mein Kampf' that the necessary conditioning for later life must begin in early childhood. Through thorough training of mothers, it should be possible to implement a treatment in the child's early years that serves as an excellent foundation for later development. This later development primarily refers to the seamless integration into the ideology and institutions of the Nazi state. This is also explicitly the concern of the doctor Johanna Haarer, whose books 'The German Mother and Her First Child' and 'Our Little Children' became guidelines for dealing with babies and toddlers in many families during the Third Reich and in the years that followed. Nazi education, based on Haarer's very precise instructions, was primarily an education through emotional detachment leading to an inability to form relationships. It is evident that only a fascist type unbound by any values and morals, conscience, or human connections could be utilized for any purpose and goal at any time. It is time to confront this legacy of National Socialism, namely the fact that the majority of those born during the Third Reich and in the post-war years were released into life with early Nazi influences, without ever becoming aware of this fact and its possible consequences.
