hours of their day together, then rest assured that all the troubles will vanish.
Let the children's program in the summer vacation include some household duties, such as making the beds and helping in the kitchen — in drying the dishes and setting the table and some light cleaning. In this way the children learn to bear responsibilities and to love work.
Let us encourage the children to read in books other than the set schoolbooks. Let us read them stories. Let us choose with them certain books for them to read, and encourage them to summarize or criticize them if their age permits.
Children have ambition and a love of knowledge and learning. And it is the parents' duty to encourage this ambition and to nourish this knowledge.
Children have their own independent personality, and like grown-ups they love to preserve it. It is a sin to treat them like statues. Children have a beautiful, creative mind, which we must respect and encourage, that it may grow and flourish.
Children need the grown-ups to respect them, and to stop treating them as though they were dumb beasts that neither understand nor hear nor reason.
