Stop SIopping
BY Angelo Potri

Children can be very annoying
at any time of the day or the
night, but they are especially
upsetting when a mother is tired,
rushed with work and trying to
get things done under the pres
sure of time. 1t is difficult to be
patient at such times, and giving
them a good slap" relieves the
mothers tension for the time and
may stop the irritation the child
Is causing for the moment. But
it will never help in the long run.
1t does nobody any good and it
is likely to do a great deal of
harm. It makes a child rebel
against authority and he assures
himself that when he is big
enough he will hit back. 1t makes
the relationship of child and
mother less than happy. trustful
or loving. It does nothing to les
sen the child's desire for atten-
ton or his wish to be annoying.
Home is a partnership and all
members of the family are part
ners, sharing good and bad as
they come. This means that each
does his best to understand the
other, to see why he does as he
does, to try to adjust things so
as to prevent unpleasantness and
discomfort and to make peace and
contentment possible for all.
Children want to be loved,
needed and allowed to be useful
In the home. They want to be

part of all that goes on there and
when they are shunted aside and
told. Keep out of the way. Can't
you see I'm busy? Go find some
thing to do and stop bothering
me-" they are thrown back on
themselves, don't know what to
do and so keep on "bothering.'
Then they are likely to be slapped,
and that's no answer, either.
All children in the family, even
the youngest, are happiest when
allowed to feel that they share
in the days doings. Train them
to be useful, although it will take
more time and cause more strain
to do so than to do the thing
yourself. You are not working
for the minute but for the years
ahead, when this child will be
fully matured in mind and char
|acter, knowing what to do, how
to do and when to set about it
|Slapping will never accomplish
that. The most slapped children
are the least resourceful, least
cooperative, least intelligent about
the life going on about them
The unslapped are bright, quick
into things all the time and-i1
you do not understand children
and your relationship to them
most irritating.
A little irritation is a slight
price to pay for a happy, active
Intelligent child who will become
a bright, active intelligent adult
Stop slapping.
