JANE JORDAN |

DEAR JANE JORDAN-—I have been married four years. My husband and I love each other very much. He is 24 and I am 20. My problem is this: My sister-in-law lives next door in the double house with us, and she has a 3-year-old boy who is always running in and out of my house from the time we get up lo the time we go to bed. I overlooked it when they first moved in as I thought the boy's mother would put a stop to it, but that was months ago and it is still being done. My husband gets angry with the child and scolded him one night for it and sent him home, but he was back the next morning. He gets a great kick out of tearing up the house as he goes through, and if I scold him he just tells me to shut my mouth. I realize it in mostly his parents’ fault and I've done everything but come right out and tell them about it. I don’t want to quarrel with them. Please tell me what to do. SS.

Answer—It will he very easy for you to train so voung a child to behave in a more considerate manner. Keep your doors locked at all times, and when he rings in the morning tell him politely that you are too busy to have company, and that he must run along home. Keep this up with steady consistency until he learns that you mean what you say. When you ado let him in, make friends with him and give him something to play with. If he tears up the house, correct him kindly, and if he tells you to shut your mouth, send him home. Explain to him that good boys do not talk that way and you're only interested in good boys. You'll be surprised how soon the child will learn to respect you. Scolding is not as effective as firmness. The trouble with people who are unsuccessful in handling children is that they are not consistent in their attitude. They alternate scold with indulgence, and the child soon learns that an angry mood is followed by a softened attitude. He is just as quick to recognize an inflexible attitude which permits no imposition on good nature.

Above all things a child wants to be noticed. He will annoy people in order to attract attention. Your cue is to show him attention when he is amenable and send him home when he is naughty. Praise him warmly for good behavior. Show some affection for him when you have time for a visit, and he'll be your obedient slave in no time. There is no sense in letting your irritation with his careless parents influence your attitude toward the child. He only knows what he is taught. If they do not take the trouble to teach the boy good manners, you will have to do it yourself when he is in your home. All this can be managed very quietly without antagonizing his parents. JANE JORDAN.
