The Mature Parent—

Blow-up Is Good for Us If It Nips Child Tyranny

By MURIEL LAWRENCE

I RECENTLY HEARD a child guidance expert tell |

ower which thrives in England.

Mr. Mendel, who got his trainng in Europe under the apprence system, has a lot of other ideas about growing perennials ‘n Indiana climate. “Too much of the perennial ;eed here comes from a climateike California’s,” he observed. “Now I'm going to save seed from the single lupine that survived in that sunny bed. Maybe it will carry over that same heat-resistance.”

a group of parents, “An occasional blow-up is good for us. I'd be worried about the parent who doesn’t blow

up now and then.”

I'm for blow-ups, too— but not for the kind that merely releases anger and temper.

Blow-ups that explode personal ' grievances may give us a temporary relief. But they don’t clear the way

for the kind of new understanding between us and a child that

ends the need

for further blow-ups. We are not going to get too far with 14 - year - old Jane when we blow up be-

to me—and let's have no more nonsense.”

2 - ” 1 DON'T think we should find it hard to deal with our young people’s tyrannical impulses, By this time, I should think we'd be so allergic to big dictators that we could blow up convincingly at little ones when they try to take advantage of us. Personal grievances are poor stuff to offer children when we have at hand the lessons taught us by the Hitlers and the Stalins with their terrible talents

Another important lupine point—the soil he’s raising-them in is an old clover veld, welllimed. He's experimenting along perennial lines, too. One new idea will appeal to gardeners who love creeping phlox but find it doesn’t love their gardens.
