They figure they've got to shine at everything, To look as carefully groomed as Mrs. A. To cook as well as Mrs. B. To entertain as effortlessly as Mrs. C. To have as well-mannered children as Mrs. D. To sew as professionally as Mrs. E—and 80 On. And all the while Mesdames A, B,C, D and E are envying each other's talents. They feel frustrated because in this ability or that they fall short of a friend who excels at it. That sort of envy and lowrating of self isn't just a waste of good time, It's downright destructive. Women can take pride in the things they ARE specialists in, Instead of frustrating them- .

The younger stepsister laughed shrilly ‘You raggedly girl, she ordered, ‘go back to your cinders where you belong ...'” As we all know, Cinderella did as she was told In the fall issue of Understanding the Child a publication of the National Association for Mental Health, psychologist Dr. Hanna Colm calls for a new deal on our unrealistically “loving” books and stories for children I am delighted that she has.

Unless that Fairy Godmother made a point of being around every time Cinderella disagreed with her husband, every time her chil: dren tried to bully her, Cinderella is going to end up a pretty put-upon lady—one of those frail delicate beings that has.to reach for the smelling salts every time a voice is raised. We really don’t want Babs or Johnny getting the idea that submission to family tyranny is rewarded by pumpkin coaches and royal weddings Because it isn't. “With our unrealistically ‘loving’ hooks." writes Dr. Colm, “we leave children alone with the most frightening feeling of hate and envy, instead of helping them to accept and integrate their bad feelings after which good ones can

I am all for traditions But I also am for giving the same careful scrutiny to ideas which the past imposes on us as we give to new ideas our own generation tries to sell us. What we're after is truth, old or new. So, as I believe that Cinderella and her ilk are overrated people, I think that Dr. Colm has rendered us a service. Much of our juvenile literature is both misleading and patronizing. Maybe it is time to demand the same truth, the same realism, in children's books that we like in

TF BABS is struggling with fierce resentment of an older sister's teasing, Cinderella is a bad example. In effect, Cinderella says to Babs “Just put up with it, my dear. Go up to your bedroom and cry as I went down to my cinders and wept—and you may get a Prince out of it.” If Johnny is struggling over the memory of his parents’ argument at breakfast, his story about a little fire engine's adventure does nothing to reassure him that mothers ands fathers often disagree. So when we read Cindérella to our little daughter, let's remember that Princes are not acquired by creeping away from aggression After we close the book we might say what a scare cat she was! I wonder why she didn’t say to her sisters, ‘Not another flounce will I sew in this house until you learn to be nice to me!” ” Isn't that exactly what. we'd want Babs to do in Cinderella position?
