WOMEN CHILD GUIDANCE The Family Can Help Junior To Develop Speaking Poise By G. CLEVELAND MYERS We often are amazed at the forceful utterances by adolescent boys and girls on the air or before one of our clubs or civic groups. Sometimes we get the impres- youths many, y selves in their own clasroom or even in their family circle? The modern high school, with its growing emphasis on pupil par- ticipation, its student council, its dramatic clubs and courses in pub- Even so, many high school stu- dents dread the time when their turn comes to make a ch be- fore their class, and public speak- ing courses don't always rate as the most attractive courses. There has grown up in recent years a friendlier pupil-teacher relationship in the classroom, from the early grades through high school, so that students there might feel more comfortable as they soak informally among their own classmates. Too, we like to think there are more and more homes where children and youths feel at ease as they talk in the family circle. It's in these informal settings where there can be best growth and development of ease and forcefulness of speech. CHILD UNCOMFORTABLE If you will observe the average child in the grades and high school as he speaks one or more sen- tences at a time, or in your own home as he shares in the fam- ily conversation or in conversation with guests, you know that he often feels very uncomfortable while speaking. And if you can get into his confidence, and have him tell you how he often feels at such times, you may conclude that both at home and at school we still have a long way to go to cultivate the forceful speech by the youth that he might attain. The greatest handicap to ease and forcefulness of verbal utter- ance is self-consciousness -- fear of what a listener may be think- of the way we are speaking, or what might be said to our discom- fort after we have spoken. When we have such fears, we can neither keep our mind well on what we want to say, nor on good ways of sa it. 'Therefore, we may halt and fill in with "and," "uh," *'ah," back up often for a new start, forget what we had meant to say or feel helpless. The youth with such obvious trouble in the classroom needs to gain assurance that he has an appreciative audience and won't be ridiculed or picked to pieces after he has finished.
