A CHILD is ENTITLED TO
RESPECT
Emma Gary Wallace

Emma Gary Wallace
There are some grown-up per
sons, both parents and teachers
who seem to take it for granted
that child should be ready at any
time to let others know exactly
what he thinks and how he feels
and to reveal any and all of his
faults and weaknesses. When one
comes to think about 1t, to demand
this of a child is surely taking an
unfair advantage Of him since he
is by no means the older persons
equal in worldly wisdom.
A noted psychologist advises per-
sons who are in charge of children,
not to feel free to prod the child
to reveal what he thinks, or whe-
ther he likes his father or his mo-
ther better, or to drag his short
comings into the open. He de-
clares that one of the ways in
which parents and teachers can ex-
ert a tremendous" influence in
guiding children, is to help the boy
or girl make his own adjustments,
but that to do this does not mean
that the child should be required
to make display or an exhibit as
it were, of all he thinks or all that
he has done.
Even the laws of the land recog-
nizes the right of the individual not
to make statements which can be
used against him. Sometimes, to
be sure, it is desirable that a child
shall tell quite fully what he has
seen or done, in order that those in
authority may understand and gov
ern their own actions accordingly. |
But in any case, we must not take
from the child that very precious
individual possession-his own self
respect.
AS a usual thing, the confidence
of the child may be gained and held
easily by the one whom he respects
and who respects him. Sometimes
the child will not be ready to re-
veal what he has in his heart and
mind at once. We are good deal
like that NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OF
keeping, our impressions to our
selves until we are in a revealing
mood.
Many a child has told untruths as
a method Of defense against sud-
den demand for. information. DR..
John ]. B. Morgan, Professor OF
Psychology at Northwestern Uni
declares that a study of at
least 2,500 children in the univer-
sity's psychological clinic, con-
yinces him that many mental all
ments of adults could have been
avoided by proper early guidance
in the home and school.
Z fffe responsibility OF parents and |
teachers is indeed great, AS far as
possible, we should encourage chill
iren to be frank but should seldom
;orce a confession. We should
each them to be hopeful, to expect
Justice and square deal. 1t is bet
,er to err occasionally in giving the
child the benefit of the doubt, than
o give him the feeling that he has
lot been fairly dealt with. When
formal child knows that we trust
lin, he will try to measure up to
what we expect, and eventually
hat which is true and noble with
n him will grow and bear the fin
st kind of fruit.

COUNCIL NOTES

Whether the driver was a city
slicker or hayseed, and whether
the accident occurred in town OF
in the country, excessive speed was
the traffic law violation most fire.
quently reported in 194O's fatal au-
tomobile accidents.
Ask people what they think is the
matter with traffic and the most
frequent answer will be, ''0h, they
drive way too fast"
The statistics prove that this
answer is correct. Among fatal
traffic accidents that occurred in
cities during 1910, excessive
speed" was reported in Is per cent.
In fatal accidents in rural areas
the percentage was even higher
21 per cent?
The other three corners of this
four-cornered recklessness pattern
aren't so clear cut as the fact that
excessive speed stands out head
and shoulders above other driver
violations.
In the cities right-of-way VIOLA
tions were second to excessive
speed. They were reported in 8
per cent of all urban fatal acci-
dents.
Next in the cities came "disre-
gard for officer or traffic control
device"-in 4 per cent of the fatal
accidents. And the fourth corner
in the urban pattern was driving
on the wrong side of the road
reported in per cent.
In the rural areas, driving on the
wrong side of the road was report
ed in IL per cent of the fatal accl-
dents. Right of way violations
were the third most frequent
per cent. Disregard for an officer
or traffic control device and 'im-
proper passing" were tied for third
with per cent each.
In fatal urban accidents driver
of some traffic regula-
tion were reported in half the
cases. In the fatal rural accidents
driver violations were reported in
two-thirds of the cases.
Statistics make it look as though |
a little more obedience to the laws
is in order.
