The answer is big but I would write the main points only.
Jean Jacks Rousseau was influenced by the contemporary situation in France.
He talked about nagative education in the sense that the child aged 5-12 should be left into the lap of nature.
Let the organs of body get direct learning from nature as organs act as instruments of knowledge.
Nature would be the best teacher at this age.
1. Time saving not needed
2. No book learning
3. No habit formation
4. No formal moral teaching
5. No social Education
6. No formal discipline
As we see that there are so many negations to the system of education generally practised in society.
This is why he called it negative education.
