An unpublished article by Alfred Adler, "Children's Life Tests", can be found at http://go.ourworld.nu/hstein/hoff-test.htm. It was edited by Edward Hoffman.

"We can never tell whether a child has been rightly prepared for life until he or she is faced with a difficulty. This is true even regarding a small baby. As long as individuals, young or old, are not challenged--put through a test, we might say--we know practically nothing about their prior emotional-social training and present capability. Therefore, life-tests are always necessary if we are to understand children."
