teaching that children should not fight
that boys should be friendly to each

In the best-bred circles.
Boys should not get into fights for

he starts out in the world, with other
boys.
AS soon as the mother starts to side
with her boy, to show sympathy for
him and reprimand other boys for their
brutality. she will have to stand for
that boys unpopularity and see him
