Are Children a Duty?
Should They Be Brought Into the
World When Parents Are IN
able to Care For Them3
By Virginia TerhUne Van de Water

IF parents cannot do justice to chill
dren after they are here, there can
scarcely be any fulfilment Of duty
to them in bring them here.
By Justice 1 do not mean luxury.
Money in abundance is not good for
children, and it is well for them TO
learn selfdeniaI in some directions
Your son may not be able to own a
motor car or a saddle horse, as does
your neighbours son, and yet ne can
be quite as happy as the Weather lad;
he may have to deny himself many
luXuries if he would save money for
a trip to the mountains or seashOres
and he may have to economic care
fully to make mis- allowance (al you
can afford to give HIM, supply all his
needs. He is none the worse, indeed,
IS rather the better, for all these
facts.
It is a sad thing for an ambitious
and bright lad, with Intellectual tastes
and thirst for knowledge, to have
10 enter an office as soon as he is out
Of grammar school so that he may
earn the money That is needed at home.
He can be young but once, and in re-
hnQuishing the education that he
wants to take, or which you should
insist upon his taking, he is ietGng
slip opportunities which he can never
recall
Is there any .dpty that compels so
many children TO be born that this
state Of affairs is a necessity Are
not parents performing their duty
more when they have two or three
children whom they can feed, clOthe
and educate properly than in having
seven or eight, to not one Of whom
they can do justice2
Have they not a right TO be cOnsid-
cred? Are we to rush them in num-
bers into sphere in which they cannot
develop the best that is in them2
Should we feel no hesitation IN usher
ing them into a family already so fun
that we wonder from week TO week
how all the mouths are to be fed and
and all the bodies clothed2
Who that looks at the little
ing another. burdened with weights
and responsibilities far beyond their
years, old before their time, dare say
that the parents Of these little burden
bearers fulfil any duty to God or man
in bringing a child into the world
every year?
The PsaImist declared that children
were a gift from the Lord. Many par
ents feel that they are, and they are
right in declaring that they are bless
ings and delights in many homes,
making life wei worth the living. But
that the Lord is responsible for send
ing children here, marred before birth
by inherited evils, and crushed after
" believe; ana the statement that
bringing children into the world under
all conditions and circumstances is the
duty of every married couple is one
to which no thoughtful lover Of his
kind will agree.
