I thought she'd change her mind after we gave her some cighiaatns= but I was of I love to listen to Byes like a certain record very "dics I play it over and over--maybe four or five times in a row te mother says it is abnormal. play the same record over and over and anyone who does it is over the edge of the roof, the catty office manager, the|wrong. Normally, the parent grows =|vexed at the youngster who lags or makes and repeats mistakes as he tries to learn, Indeed, this parent may grow violently angry and soon act like a ma- niac, charging the child with indifference, laziness, or down- right meanness, cursing him with no less vehement names than "dumbbell." ADD INSULTS Perhaps there is no fault of the average parent which comes out so strongly and so hampers the child's jearning as the one just described. Think how harm- ful it can be. If the child has lagged or made mistakes in his lessons, he already is disgusted with himself. To have his parent add insult to injury must make this. par- ent seem to him a bully who would kick him in the stomach or face when he is down. From such emotional situations the child may not only grow dis- heartened and hopeless over the present lesson, but, may also tend to hate all learning, not to mention hating .the parent who is trying to help. NEEDS SYMPATHY That child needs a parent with a sympathetic imagination who feels himself in the child's place and sees and understands about as the child does. This parent will discipline himself neither to show nor even feel any irritation over the young \learner's difficulties and mis- ltakes. He will do more. He will \beost the youngster's learning lmorale. He will play up his successes, Of course, all this is more easily said than done, as any parent knows; yet some parents do achieve it, and the reward is truly wonderful, Be it ob- served that the good results reach far beyond the lesson or the whole school program. They carry over to all other parent- child relationships. Treated thus, a child has a favorable jopportunity to grow in all sorts INFLUENCE ENERGY jof ways.

Now will you please say something about the knuckle cracker? The world's champion knuckle cracker sits behind me and she is driving me crazy. I have told her (as my mother used to tell me) that knuckle cracking is bad for the fingers and that over a period of time it will cause arthritis. My aunt got arthritis from cracking her knuckles, so please stand be- hind my story. Thank you.-- CRACKING UP Dear Cracking: Sorry, I can't stand behind a story that has no validity. Frequent knuckle crack- ing over a long period of time can irritate the margins of knuckle bones and cause the knuckles to grow larger, but this doesn't bring on arthritis.

Twice last week I asked my mother to stay with the kids so I could go to the hospital to see my wife. She said she was too tired. Tonight she said, 'All right, T'll come but just for a little while."

When, for instance, he brings home a paper graded high, you will display it on the wall of the kitchen or his room. You won't insist on seeing his poorest samples of work, nor tell him that all his work should be as good as the best he has shown you. A certain mother reported that her son, 10, would bring home the returned papers which had high grades on them but failed to bring home the "bad" papers. This lad seems to have been wiser than his mother. PARENTS' QUESTIONS Q. Our daughter in the second grade makes excellent grades. But she cannot be content until she has told me the bad things she has done or thought during the day (not really bad things but she insists on telling them). A. Go on encouraging her to tell of pleasant experiences. Maybe some Sunday school teacher or over-pious person helping about the home has bur- dened her with this attitude. }Aim to have more fun and \laughter at home.

TRIM Homemaker Substitutes Action For Nibbling By IDA JEAN KAIN One homemaker has con- trived a novel plan of action by which she hopes to slim down on the double. She writes: "I have a plan: Instead of nibbling, which adds calories, I'll take action to use calories. I need to know how many calories I would use in various activities. For example, in climbing a flight of stairs (14 steps), does it take more cal- ories to run up than it does to walk up the steps? How many for vigorous stretching?

If your mother doesn't feel warmly to- ward your youngsters (and ob- viously she doesn't) you can do nothing about it. She dislikes the children because she dis- likes their mother--which is un- fortunate. My advice is to leave her alone. Don't ask her for favors and don't impose the children on her.
