CHILDREN

SPEAKING OF DISCIPLINING BABY, it is almost beyond the comprehension of young mothers to be told that it does no good. I suppose the first thing I should say is, “Horrors. Only an oldYime Sepmother with snakes for hair would ever think of slapping a baby.” However, I am going to forget all that. A tiny slap on a tiny wrist or a soft whack on a fleshy bottom isn’t the problem here, whether or not it does real damage. Does it do any good? That's the thing. For I am speaking of “discipline” as meaning ‘“punishment,” as my young friend meant it when she asked me about it. No, it doesn’t do any good, for this reason: Suppose I would not eat my dinner because I wasn’t hungry. A moment later something hit me. Maybe I could see the cook, with her rolling pin, or maybe just her palm raised. Maybe I didn’t even Know she was the one I had angered. I would, in any event, not tie up my refusal to eat the clout on my back. One has to have to appreciation of cause and effect, or sin and retribution, before he gets it all. Otherwise they. are two unrelated events. The young baby cannot reason. And he will not get the connection of sin and punishment, so he won’t do any better next time. But even if, by instinct, he does get some idea of what's going on, he might figure that crying and kicking, followed by a slap, only meant that the thing you like to do is always followed by something that hurts a little.

8 2 » AT A YEAR, OR LESS, he will know the sound of disapproval in our voice. He begins fo_associate things and tie up cause and its effect. He sees the table cloth he was reaching for, or the lamp cord, and something stirs within him.

“No, no,” mecther had said in a voice he didn’t like. She had

_ said it several times. Just about to reach for the cover so temptingly

hanging and so temptingly followed by a lovely crash, he hears the echo of that “No, no.” It holds him back. Maybe he'd better just hold to his play pen and jump up and down and holler for attention. /
