of food and outside work by
the wife.
Explaining these findings,
DAS Director Harry Sharp
says:
Although the differences arc
sometimes small. Negro wives
ere genrally NOR involved in
the economic decisions OF their
families than are white wives.
"A very large proportion of
Negro Dctroiters were born in
the South. These persons may
have been reared in a family
structure that placed consider
able stress on the role of the
wife and mother as the domin-
ant family figure. There is evid-
ence that in southern white
families in Detroit the wife also
plays larger role than in
native Detroit families.
In any event, this analysis
substantiated the findings of
other researchers who have en-
phasized the important position
held by the wife in the con-
temporary Negro family
The DAS covers a representa-
tive sample of 500 families living
in Wayne. Macomb. and Oak
land Counties. 1t is sponsored

with their classmates.
So SAYS Robert 5 Fox director Of The Univer-
sity q MicheanS school
specaliSt on educational Guidance. Professor
Fox saws "But where discipline is accompanied by
lov degree Of freedom children are not well lik-
ed ard have relatively little sway over their class
mates.
They also more often made the targets Of
physical force other assertve behavior he
says.
The educator advocates haveing limits for youth
ways have their own way in the family circle"
he SAYS However. there is a need for youth to
have the opportunity to express their inter-
ests
discipline is means Of dealing with the
child when, in the parents estimation, the child
exceeds certain limits of appropriate behavior.
Discipline may hostility in the child along
withfs realization that it's of parental
power"
He stresses that the rules should be firm but
that a feeling of resentment never should ac-
company discipline. Parents should create home
climate which lets their youngsters know that
there is firm set of rules they must follow"
