to you, by trying to educate you
so that you could help yourself
later, by being fair and kind and
loving?
Then. why do we go on demands
ing that our children love us and
respect US merely because we are
their mothers7 1t is our~job to
learn how to feed them properly,
how to keep them comfortable,
how to give them constructive
things to do that they may grow
mentally and in body. how to keep
them truthful to us by being ut
terly truthful with them.
1t is our big obligation to make
them love us because we are de-
serving of it. and not take advan.
tage of the fact that we are older
and bigger and can demand that
they act as though they loved us.
If you are fair with your child;
If he sees that you are doing all
that you can for him. trying to
understand his little hurts and an
noyances; lovingly guiding him,
you will not have to demand his
respect and love. He will give il
freely and generously, but you will
have earned it. You will be
friends.
1t is worth thinking over for a
few minutes at this time when
1the nation Is dwelling on the
thought of motherhood 1t Is time
to make a resolution in your
secret heart, to be the best sort
of mother you can possibly be,
to make your child glad you
brought him to this vast world.
After all, a child is like any
adult. He responds to justice,
kindness and love, and he will
love you in just the proportion
you earn that love.

take the light things of life too
solemnly. Watch your own
thoughts, for they determine
whether you are good company for
yourself and others. If you find
yourself constantly feeling sorry
for yourself, look. gut! You prob
ably are the whining type, and
that is fatal to popularity.
Do not find fault, criticize and
condemn your acquaintance when
you are thinking things over? It's
not fair, you know, for none of us
can judge any of the others fairly,

So many mothers demand re-

announced one mother last year.
"Am not her mother"
Well, exactly what does that
mean, when 1t comes to that
word "shou1dP'? Why should
a child be told it must love it's
mother better than all the world
if that mother doesn't earn that
love? We should be grateful for
having been ushered into this

moments in the lives Of all of us
when we had much preferred that
