THE NERVOUS MODERN CHILD
If this restless age does not soon
come to an end, the world will be
crowded with physical and mental
wrecks.
Children were formerly kept COM
paratively quiet during infancy and
childhood. They were also put to
bed early at night. During the day
they played with few simple toys
or romped in the gardens or under
the trees.
Today, their nurseries are fitted
up with every kind of contraption
intended to amuse and interest
them. Ambitious mothers try to
teach them to fit maps and puzzles
together at a very tender age. AS
soon as they begin to toddle, they
play in the streets where life is a
constant source Of danger.
Poor little things dart back and
forth on treacherous skates and
scooters, escaping automobiles, look
ing and listening at every turn for
the iuggernauts of death that strike
so swiftly, manning or killing. They
! are tense and on the quivive every
moment, for they cannot romp,
skate and play where deadly ma
chimes dart back and forth without
realizing that at any moment they
may be crushed under truck, au-
tomobile or motorcycle.
When they go to school, the work
is of necessity under B.. our public
school system, so arranged that
certain amount must be covered in
a given time They are still further
stimulated by the offering of vari-
Gus rewards or distinction if they
attain certain standards.
The result is that some children
easily reach the coveted goal while
others who may have tried equally
as hard and failed, feel bitter and
keen disappointment which is fur
ther aggravated into resentment
against the teacher who was in no
way to blame.
If you enter moving picture
theatre where there is show of a
character which is most exciting,
filled with fighting and dangerous
ir-breadth escapes, you will find
the place packed with children of
all ages, squealing, yelling and
otherwise giving vent to their ex-
cited pent-up emotions.
Do you wonder that nervousness
is increasing among children? 1t is
a disease that is growing by leaps
and bounds. The nervous child un-
less placed in the proper environ
ment and treated as he should be,
will grow up into a neurathenic,
delinquent or psychoneurotic. He
may ultimately land in an insane
asylum. The latter institutions are
becoming so over-crowded that at
the present rate of increase in their
population, in a few years the. sane,
normal people that are left will be
unable to bear the burden of the
unfit.
