Raising Children

most is his fear of the breaking of the family bond, which is his safe refuge and his fortified stronghold. Studies of juvenile delinquency have proved that the first source of this painful social plague goes back to the disintegration of the family through divorce, or through the illness or death of one or both parents.

Fourth — Self-confidence is a first necessity for children

The inferiority complex is among the psychological plagues most dangerous to children, for it hinders their progress in the various walks of their life. To combat this danger, parents must develop self-confidence in their children by encouraging them on every occasion, praising their good points from time to time, and drawing the attention of the rest of the family to whatever good or useful deeds they may perform.

There is no doubt that parents can spare their children failure in many matters if they explain these to them sufficiently; and it may be right, more often than not, to leave the way open before them for experiment. If failure in some of those experiments cannot be avoided, then let the failure be a lesson to profit by, and let the child grow used to accepting it with a good heart and a cheerful spirit. And there is no doubt that parents must set the good example in this field, and in every other side of life that calls now for patience and endurance, now for firmness and strength, or for tact and courtesy.

Fifth — The child must be left room to form a strong, independent personality

The formation of the child's personality begins with the way in which he arranges his toys, or builds sand houses on the beach or in the garden.

Parents may sometimes be inclined to direct him in this field, but it is better for him and for them to leave him alone and give him room to form his own personality by those simple, natural means.

The older the child grows, the stronger becomes his need to take over responsibility for managing

his own affairs. Parents may not appreciate the value that certain things have for him — such as going to school and coming back by himself, and choosing his own friends and companions. But these matters, which seem trivial to parents, have their great importance, for it is they that prepare the

child to bear wider and weightier responsibilities in the future. No doubt he will commit some mistakes; but the danger of these mistakes is slight, while the hopes that go with them are great and beautiful, so long as his parents surround him with their affection, their love, and their care.
