These Children Of Ours:
CURING THE SHY CHILD.

Shy children cannot be cured of their shyness by forcing them. It To will only make them worse. make fun of a diffident child or to scold him or punish him for being unsociable is as useless as trying to make a century plant bloom be- fore it is ready.
Shy children are usually more in- happy than their parents are about their failure. to mix with other people. They know they are dif ferent, and long cruelly to be able to overcome their terrible shrinking and to be like other children.
There never lived a shy child who did not gaze with, envy at all the merry groups around him-noisy, happy, normal youngsters and wish that he could be like them.
He is greatly to be pitied and needs all the help he can get.

The first thing to be done is to set about trying to have the child forget himself. In order to do this, parents and other members of the family must pretend not to notice him-not to, the point of having him feel neglected or left out, but enough to have him feel that he is not under observation at all times.
