In bringing up children,
which is more dangerous
to be too strict, or to be too
leninent and easy-going?
That's the question which
Mr.. Y. asks in today's mail;
and it comes weekly from a
dozen other fathers and
mothers.
Obviously, one of the most
perplexing problems facing a
majority of all parents is the
problem of discipline.
Of course the answer is in
defining the words. If strict
ness means arbitrary COM
mands, deprivationS lust to
teach the child a lesson" or
even brutality (and in some
homes it means all Of those
thingSD then l haven't a
good word to say for it.
Definite Policy
But if strictnesS means a
definite, intelligent, but firm
policy. then no child was ever
spoiled in that way. but mil
lions have been harmed by in

problem and many others in
