To the old idea, of course, but many OF
old ideas are absurd and need To be
modified if not actually cast out. IL IL
true that children are frequently indulged
in ways that are detrimental, but the
trouble is most cases is that children are
ndulgcd at wrong times and i'll the wrong
manner Indulgence, when properly exc
