Some Lying Advisable
How much lying is advisable?
Well, quite a lot in our belief
less to protect the child from the
harsh aspect of life than to protect
him from his schOOlmates. The
little boy who has learned at home
that there have been dark chapters
in his country's history which are
left out Of his text book is going to
make himself exceedingly unpopu-
lar with his teachers, and Will prob
ably get a beautiful trouncing from
his patriotic little classmates. Such
a small child. who is made to feel
an outsider, is paying a very high
price for his fathers intellectual
integrity.
The ideas a child receives outside
the home are essentially conserva-
tive. because most of the people
with whom he associates are con-
sentative. To ask him to be
martyr to advanced opinions before
he has had taste of the other kind
and made his choice seems, essen
= TALLY unfair.
Standards to OutgrOw
And don't forget that it is the
immemorial right of the young man
in his late teens to pass through
a period of doubt and revolt. Isn't
it unkind to rob a youngsters of the
usual excitement of casting off his
intellectual swaddhng clothes and
discovering for himself the fun of
smashing idols?
Recently a New York literary
couple moved to the suburbs and
