LOUISA'S LETTER — I-

Dear Louisa, My wife has a quick temper and I think the things she says are probably harmful to the children. When she becomes provoked, her favorite word is stupid. She will say, ‘‘Stupid, don’t you know better than that?” or “What makes you so stupid.” I think a child should have his opinion of himself built up and not torn down. What do you think about this? o Ted. 111. Answer: The best way to encourage a child to be stupid or to be bad is to accuse him of being stupid or bad. The more you do this, the easier it will be for him to lose confidence in himself. 1 once knew a mother

whose small girl was an ordinary looking child but her mother had convinced her that she was beautiful and talented and she really gave off that illusion of herself because she thought it was true. One of the most important things in our lives is to respect ourselves and to believe that we are worthy people and that we are doing the best we can for ourselves and for others. This makes for poise and peace of mind. This doesn’t mean that we should try to convince others of this by words but merely by the way we live and our attitudes to situations and people. Never call a child stupid unless you wish him to become stupid. Louisa. Address letters: Louisa. Box 532.Ofengeburg. S.C. 29115
