Billy's mother frequqently refep
to him as her "little sweetheart."
The designation is more revealing
than she realizes. She admits that
she loves him with devotion; that
he Is to her the most precious thing
on earth.
But when It happens that absorbed
In play he forgets to give her the
whole-hearted personal response to
which sho is accustomed she la an
noyed and shows her annoyance
treating him coldly.
Returning one evening from
absence of several days, (for which
sho had taken no trouble to prepare
him) she was hurt deeply when he
scarcely returned her greeting.
Billy, for his part, was hurt too.
Had she not deserted him? It would
be hard to tell which of the two, the
mother or her 4-year-old son behaved
more childishly. It would seem that
the child had the more Justifica
tion for his behavior.
Ono cannot expect a child to ad-
Just himself to a lover-like enpri-
clouaness In his parents. He does
not understand a love that goes from
one extreme to another. He Is un
skilled at dramatlBlng his emotion,
and cannot find his way In a situa
tion that demands a quality of feel
ing of which he Is not capable. He
is merely baffled, confused and hurt.
In the long run he learns to love
such a mot hor at one moment and
hate her Intensely tho next. He
Icarus to sulk and! to tenso by pre
tending Indifference or to get what
ho wants by showing especial affec
tion.
Children are not Uttlo sweethearts,
they are children. And they do not
need passionate adoration that asks
a like return, but rather qulot steady
affection which they may take for
granted.
