wants attention, and tried to ig-
more the fact. This. naturally. did
not solve the little fellows prob
lem. He still wanted attention and
was not getting It. He continued,
therefore. TO annoy and had to be
warned that he would have to leave
the room unless he could be quiet.
Although. the child appeared
ChaStened by this. there was bound
to be more trouble. Mothers ulti-
matum was one which no child
could be expected to obey under
the circumstances.
Billy himself was Just baby. but
because he was the eldest instead
OF an only9hild. he was expected TO
show superior understanding and
self control. This was unfair.
However. this is not to say that
little children should receive atten-
ton for the asking. Rather when
they continually bid for it. ii should
be construed as a sign that they
may not be getting as much as they
need. Billy's mother should have
realized that the child felt ne
elected and should have made it
possible for him TO share the lime
light legitimately by suggesting
that the little boy pass the cookies
or cigarettes around or that he get
his drawings out to show the guests.
To ignore a child's presence COM
pletely in company is rude. II the
parent does not want him in the
room, he should suggest politely
that he go play elsewhere.

If seriously smitten, is unwilling TO
