CP ee ee errr se 14 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, July 20, 1966 ANN LANDERS Sympathetic Readers Criticize Selfish Mother sion. It's a joy to know that my column is being read by so many beautiful people. My thanks to' all of you who wrote, Dear Ann Landers: I was rocked by the letter from 12- year-old Danny. His mother would not give him money to go to the movies with his schoolmates because he had been sick a great deal and his illness had cost the. family.s much. His mother told him that because of the doctor and 'hos- pital bills he had run up, she wasn't going to be able to buy any new clothes for a long time, and they'd have to forget about a new car.' Danny asked you how he could let his mother know that he loved her and that he was sorry he had caused them so much trouble. I would like to address my remarks to Danny's mother: | Madame: If you feel that your son is too expensive, will you please send him to me?

MYERS, PhD For schoo! children their grades for the term or year wil soon be coming home. Some al- ready have arrived, Children ep ain ct good grades may be appiauded by their parents, or their successes may be taken for granted. Those bringing home low or failing grades may be shamed and punished. In the same family one child may have high grades on his report card, another very low grades. "Why are your grades not as good as Jim's or Karen's?" is the kind of question that may bring to a child a lot of pain. Suppose one of your children brings home a report card excellence. Suppose another brings home a report card say- ing he failed. to be promoted with his class. How would you feel, act and speak to each child when you see his report card? How do Grandma, Uncle Pete and Aunt Becky act then? How do the children respond? What do they say? How do they feel toward you and toward each other? | No doubt you knew months ago that the one child was lagging at school and that the other was excelling. How did you act toward each of these children then? How did each child feel toward you over the past several months? How did each feel toward the other child? How will each child feel toward you and toward the other during the next several months? In the secret musing of your heart, what place will each of these children have during summer vacation? Dur- ing the. first several months following next September? DEALING WITH LAGGARD Here are some ways in which you might act and feel toward your child if he has lagged or failed in one or several school subjects. 1, You might shame him, abuse him and tell him he is ornery and lazy. You could add that his school report has dis- graced you and your friends. You could punish him. 2. You could pity him and tell him how sorry you are that his grades are so low. 3. You could tell him not to worry about the grades on his report card now, that you are going to find ways to help him next fall to earn better grades at school. WWiin A Child With Poor Grades Constructive Help vw awe 4. You could set out to tain where you could best advice and guidance sible for helping this child more efficiently. check on the child and vice, you might come conclusion that this child have the native capacity much better than he 6. Or you could try to act and feel as if you are not concerned at all, and kept no more account of his low grades than if he well before drying them on the towel. READING A KEY If your child in the grade or high school has very low or failing marks, the chances are great that he is low in reading skills. You could find out in a few minutes if his schoolbooks for his grade are too hard for him to read well. Just have him read several sentences aloud and tell you in his own words what he has read. If he must stumble over words or is unsure jof what he is reading, you will jknow he needs reading practice on materials much easier. In your school district there may be classes which this child can attend, You might be able |to find a skillful tutor to work with him for several weeks this summer. You might tutor him yourself. But it won't be easy for you to follow closely a program or keep yourself al- ways patient and serene. Whatever you do, please don't have his school arrears hang over him this summer like the Sword of Damocles., With no reference all summer to his low grades last term, select only hopeful things to say to him in relation to books, school or learning.
