STUDY OF PARENTHOOD IS FAR MORE THAN A FAD

I do not know how many chil- dron she knows, but I take it sho is judging fifty million by the dozen or two belonging to her friends. She arraigns the modern mother for the new liberty move- ment which allows children an unheard of freedom.

The mothers, of course, are ac- cused. They do everything wrong and nothing right. Children are, according to this article, merely incidental, are either turned over to nurses or neglected, and given their heads.

Aside from the fact that we do have this class of mothers, by far too many of them are daily grow- ing in numbers, I take exception to the label she prints. If she knew as many hard working, cara- eat, sensible mothers as I do, she would be less hasty in her judg· ment.

Is it that we can study almost any thing else on earth and be praised: for it, but the moment we open a child book, or hear a child lecture there is that silly propaganda and prejudice to laugh us down?

There will be, are, many mis- takes. Frequently, as in this lib- erty idea, it is overdone because not clearly understood by same mothers. Discipline plays an ex- sential part, but it is n new discl pline that is far more effectual and not so ruinous.

At any rate I see too many fine mothers to allow my factual know- ledge to be swayed by a few snap words,
