Abstract
["I" am able to become "I" by establishing a relationahip with "You"] In this way, Mr.Martin Bubrt indidyrf that the human beings are a relational existence appeared only in the intersubjective relationship with "You", and thus, drastically converted the thought of human beings (children) into a modern "cogito" thought. In addition, Mr.Macrice Merleau=Ponty grasped the human being in physical existence who is going to maintain the relationship with the world as "Being-in-the-World" in view of phenomenology. According to his opinion, solely the body is the subject of a intersubjective, as well as relative existence. Such being the case, the situation based on viewing to grasp chidren who are "The children of intersubjective and relative existence", as well as "The children of I and you relationship" cleared by the above two persons is the situation based on viewing to be procured in today's education in Japan. In other words, fixed-ideally and substantially, in the first stage, good children, bad children, able children and unable children are not being existed. The identity of children is variable depending upon the closer relationship or not, established between a teacher and students or between students themselves in a schoolroom. On the other hand, children (human beings) are not closely fixed substances, but fluidly and openly related existences. It is prerequisite to establish a intersubjective, as well as mutual and responsive relationship in the schoolroom where a keen look and sympathize are observed at all times. As one of recent educational problems, "Refusal of attendance to school", is a typical problem to be solved, which must be corrected in view of a human "I and You" idea or physically relative and existential viewpoints.
