OUR BIGGEST JOB.
"But, mother—"
"Now don't argue and talk back to
me, You do as I tell .ybit. and keep
still," - •
Does that have a familiar ring co
You? I suppose we all do' get aggra-
vateclawhen the children try to argue
with us about doing this or that but
it is not alwaye ,wise to refuse them
a hearing. This is illustrated in the
story ,of the grandfather whe was
talking eernestlet during a meal and
became exasperated at the efterte of
his grandsorn to attract his aetention.
FMally he timed tO thechflit ad
said sternly,"William be etill. Chil-
dren should be eeen mid not heard."
A little later he lietueried to the
now quiet but rather excitea.looking
child and said, "Well, what was it you
wanted a while ago?" -
"It's leo late now," giggled the irrev-
erent boy. "Thereereas a worm on your
salad; you ate,it up." •
_Children are keen little observers
and have a strong sense of justice.
Most of them can be made to see the
evisdore and justice of average paren-
tal mandates. Moet,echildren obey
more willinglywhen they know the
reasons back of the commends, Blind,
unreasoning demand or obedience is
undemocratic when eirried to the ex-
treme in the home witheehildren who
have passed the baby stage. This kind
a rule seldom actually disciplines the
child and rarely .teaches him to know
right from wrong. Our children can-
not always be under our guidance
and must learn sometime why it is
best to de some things and not hest
to do others. • •
Though ' parents differ widely in
their opinions and methods of discip-
line, all a there are workinefor the
same thing—the peed of •the dhild.
Outbursts of parental teenPar can
hardly accomplish' Trinali alcing this
Since all children 'are not amenable
to the same rules and cannot be
handled in7the same way, this job of
braining up children in the way they
should go is about the biggest job in
the whole World, But sometimes I
think if we could just drop that
grown-up attitude and get down to the
cheldren's own basis and get their
viewpoint we might handle a ggeat
many eituations better. No one loses
the respect of his child who unbends
enough to enter into the child's world.
Respect does not consist of awe so
much as of love and truet--Velma
