E Geo Green If chocolate is spilled on a linen loth, sprinkle borax on the soot | should not intarfere | with the upbringing of the chil- | dren. ei cloth in cold water. ation I have ever seen in class was that of a father and mother with the grandmother. Grandfather should have been the.e, too But you and I have known a good | many grandparents who are prob- lems to the child and to his par- ents. We know some grandparents who are ruining their grandchil- dren. Their motives are /good, but the damage they are dcing is stu- pendous none-the-less. Most diffi- culties with rearing children come when the grandparent or grandpar- ents live in the growing family They love the babies to death, and wait, upon thém to much Grandparents Must Not interfere They are inclined to interfere with the parent who attempts to discipline the very voung child at the age when discipline is most ef- fective. Then when the child that they have helped to spoi! grows to the age of ten or fifteen years, saucy and disrespectful of the | grandparents and all other adults of the family, these same grand- parents are eternally scolding the children, and their parents in their children's presence for not having reared them well. They would have no hands laid upon the haby; but they wait him beaten when he is too old to nrofit much from any kind of punishment We owe it to our parents to re- spect them and, if necessary, to care for them as long as they live. They cared for us. We also want our children to respect their grand- parents. But so frequently grand- parents literally teach their grand- | children disobedience Parents who put their children foremost in their plans will arrange to make it very clear to the grand- parents that their presence in the home is welcome but that they in any way Attitudes Hard To Change All sorts of complications may | arice, particularly when the par- ants, unfortunately, are dependent economically upon the grandpar- ents, or where one or hoth grand- parents have for years assumed large responsibilities in the home. Attitudes and habits can't be changed by a mere decision. The longer they have heen practiced and the older the person the less readily will they be modified, Even those grandparents who in. good faith, pledge themselves to do or not to do certain things; will hard- ly be able to abide literally by their | promises. They are human just as | you and Iare human. Of course, not nearly all grand- parents in the home are disrupting child control. Some indeed are very helpful. But for a wise and skillful grandmother some of the most use- ful men and women of the world would never have been heard of.
