This has been the most be-auti-
ful day, with the sun shining
brightly on £he newly fallen,
snow, and doubly appreciated af
ter yesterday’s storm, It was
much too nice to stay inside, so
.1 hung my knitting bag onmy
arm, and went down to ’see my
friend,Helen,who-haS”bee<n”laid-
low” for several weeks; ‘ /
Helen yvas knitting too,” and as
yye/ knitted we chatted . , . nat
urally. The conversation turned
to our neighbor’s children, other
people’s children in general, and,
of course, our own. It began by
my telling a funny story that
John told us at lunch about a
little boy on our street. They
were being shown slides at school
this morning, and when the tea
cher had takon the firtsi slide
out and laid it aside, Earl pipes
up, “Oh, Mr. N. could I have
that old (film?” Earl is the great
est collector of salvage one ever
saw, brings home all sorts of
junk, radio parts that he picks
up behind shops, etc. However
he didn’t get the “old film”. We
often wonder what Earl's future
holds for him . . . he certainly
has a definite trend.
Then we talked about a friend
of Helen’s, who has-just acquir
ed a baby daughter . . . a little
;sister for Billy, but how Billy
was going, to take that, .was the
question before' the house; Billy,
about four, is already pretty well
spoiled (so we figure). Other
people have been taking care of
~Biliy”lat^ly^md^have“found-him-
a bit of a handful; he is, ap
parently a law unto himself. His
dad hates to discipline him, and
his ^mother even more _so. When
dad comes in at day’s end, moth
er regales him with the tale of
Billy’s misdemeanours through
the day, with Billy as interested
audience too. The account is made
to sound quite interesting, and
I&lly stands by, looking quite
smug. “He threw a can of peas
across the kitchen right after I
opened it”. I’ve never seen a
child behave like that, but ap-
patently they do. As Helen says,
“She can’t do a thing with Kim”.
You all know children like
that, I’m sure. And if a child’s
parents can’t do a thing with him,
it is "pretty difficult for anyone
else../ V /'
I was’ mulling all this over in
my mind-on the way-home, whiie-
I was making toasted ham sand
wiches and fruit salad for supper,
and I thought of Dor island the
problem child she raised. Doris
was the cousin of my cousin’s
wife, and her Peter came about,
the same time as,, our John. We
heard a great deal about Peter i
and the wonderful child lie was
. . . Cousin Frances kept us well
posted. Then,-When he was about
two years or so, we began to.
hear about the temper tantrums
Peter wold, ‘throw’ when he
didn’t get just whet he wanted,
when he wanted it. He would
howl and kick and howl some
more, until-’ his mother and
grandmother would- grant. Him
his- present, desires. Usually
small .fry can. get away with more
with grandmothers than With
, mothers, but in this' case, grand-
tensionable frame of mind. And
Mr. read;1 recently that a warm
bath is the solutiin to practically
‘all problems. Poor, John has .
never been so consistently clean .
in his life . ... . every argument
that: comes up, he gets sent to >
take a warm bath!
But to return to Peter . . he ,.
became more and more unman
ageable, until finally one night
lie hit an all time high, and in
the middle of hjs tantrum' sud
denly went limp. Naturally he
terrified the family, and they
sent—forthe--Doctor.-Throughall—
these fits of temper the child had
-developedl^distihct_heart_wndi^_
tion, and the Doctor warned them
that they must not allow him to
cry, nor cross him in any way.
From then on when he made a
demand it was instantly obeyed
. . . if he Wanted 4 chocolate bars
and 3 bananas at 8 minutes. be-.
fore lunch time, no one dated to
say no! The Doctor said he would
always have to be careful, would .
never be able to run or .play ball,
or lead the life of a normal boy.
I used to think how little he '
would thank^his mother when he
grew up so handicapped. I still
think, regardless of how little" I
know of the problems that arise
from tempers, that there is no
difficulty in child training that ’
can’t be overcome,• if .started
early enough, with an earnest ef
fort td seek the wisest course,
and not the line of least resist
ance.! also felt very sorry for
the child’s father, and how dis-
zappointing. it would be to come
home to a child who was so hand
icapped physically, all because he
had been allowed td become a
spoiled brat. I thought he had the
right to "expect;/’to~’conie’'ih0me'"to”;”
a son he could be proud of. A
diet of chocolate bars, bananas
and ice cream soon made Peter ,
fat and pasty-faced, a most Un- '
healthy looking child. I realize
that this sounds like a greatly
exaggerated case history, but it
could actually ^happen . . . be
cause it DID happen.
Then Petet’s father came home, .
and he proved to be a very sens
ible person. He realized that as
much harm was being done to
Peter’s health by allowing him
• to run his own five-year-old life
as if he had to submit to some
discipline. He had the voice and
assurance of authority, ahd his
‘No’ carried weight. Peter’s health
and disposition improved so much ’
that now, i believe, it is possible
fdr him to lead the life of a nor
mal boy/
To me, it is not only foolish,
[but unkind to allow a child to
| have and do; whatsoever his .
I heart desires. In his later r cl a-
iences with life itself,' he won't
find his. Will is supreme. He has : ;
to be conditioned to some dis
appointments, and learn to take
them, in his stride.
When John was about four, I
used, to say to him, “You. won’t ,.';-
| always get your, own way in lif(<
and you might/just as well be
gin, to learn that right now”. I .
didn’t know how well he undei r
stood what I was trying to im
press on him, but my observa
tion. has been that they get, more
than you think they do.
1 He must have got the drift y . .
one day. I overheard an argument
between him and a playmate,
over Something: each wanted
John completely squashed the
playmate ,'by quoting me, word .
for word, in a voice of assurance.
