An Editorial on Home by Laura
Spencer Porter
] Laura Spencer Porter writes i'm the
July issue Of the Mothers Magazine
with vigor and originality on the sub
ject of the child in the home
There is a great deal said" says
Mrs. Porter, ''about making the home
suitable and happy for the child; too
little said. think, Of the child's share
in molding the home to suitability
and happiness.
"Home is primarily, or should be.
place of caring and sharing. but one
would think we had forgotten all that
have visited in homes which could
hardly be called home at all, so much
were they nurseries,; houses in which
all serious and important adult
thought, conversation, speculation and
mutual adult service TO the world
were rendered practically impossible
by the overwhelming preponderance
of the child's demands on the atten-
ton.
"A real home is not a place of
mere material comfort; it is a wholly
spiritual ideal. The child's relation
to the home is an entirely spiritual
thing. Here is an ideal government,
n republic to which it is his privilege
to be devoted and loyal. Here shall
he be neither despot nor slave; but
with the other members of that home
he shall be equal in his rights, proud |
in his privileges and possessions,
eager in his responsibilities, happy in
his task"
