OF course it is impossible to meas
ure parents purely on the basis Of
friendship, for parents are 10 much
more than friends to their children.
But specialists stress the idea Of
friendship as the most successful FAM
lily relation because it is not only the
best and easiest way to approach the
child, but it solves SO many diff
culties for the parent himself.
How" asks the bewildered mother,
am ! going to teach Johnny to do
things right and to call his attention
to the wrong things unless ! scold
him? Every mother knows that she
has to keep after her children II she
wants to train Them"
And every specialist knows she Is
right. OF course she has to keep after
the children.
But there are so many, many ways
Of keeping after them besides "bawl-
ing them out for every little thing
they do.

Suppose Johnny does something
naughty. Perhaps he takes q peach
from the sideboard when he has been
forbidden to have one. or he drums
on the piano and wakens the baby. or
drags through q mud puddle With his
new shoes on: perhaps he does sorne-
thing even more serious: he may have
told q story, or carried tales about his
playmates. or been cruel to the cat,
or pulled roses out Of the neighbor's
