foundations of building the child's personality and his self-reliance, through spending his money on the necessary requirements of his daily life. It is natural for a child of seven to spend his allowance on biscuits and sweets, but he must save a part of his money for the end of the week. And when his allowance grows larger, he must set aside a part of it to buy clothes or school supplies, and put by what will cover the cost of outings with his friends.

How you should increase the pocket money, and guide your child in spending it, depends on the household's own income; and the importance of this dwindles beside the benefit from the moral side, and the well-knit lesson the child learns. But you must see to it that your child's allowance does not differ from that of his companions, lest a conviction grow in his soul that causes him misery and a shrinking into himself.

Do not try to hide the facts from your child. If he asks the price of a suit that costs sixty liras, do not claim that you bought it for ten liras, in order to screen from his understanding the extent of your wealth; likewise, do not exaggerate the price of the bicycle you gave him, in order to display your affection and generosity! How, then, are you to answer his question: "Are we rich or poor, Mama?" Do not put him off by saying: "That is a complicated

question; I will discuss it with you when you grow up." Rather, try to draw him a general picture of how income and expenditure work in the household, so that if he understands that your weekly

income is seventy-five liras, he will know how to handle his pocket money with firmness and good management—and this will help him in his days to come.
