PH.D. t u Childish Behavior Outgrowth of Habit Some people seem quite ma ture in most respects and then surprise everyone,' including themselves, by behaving childish ly when least ex pected. Others never seem to act their age. What makes them do this? Surely they must realize that by acting Dr. Hurlock like children or teenagers they are hamper ing their chances for success and are losing the respect of others. The explanation is habit. Such people have become so accus tomed to acting immaturely that they do so without realizing it until it is too .late. In the process of growing up, they should have put .away, ; childish things and learned to act like mature peo- ple.But they didn t , ifiually it is the parents who are to blame for this. Either they did not insist that their children; act their' ages, or they actually encouraged immaturity in the mistaken belief that youngsters should have carefree childhoods and would learn to behave like grown-ups when they were grown up. Repetition Develops Path Unfortunately, things work out that way. Acts that are repeated time after time develop paths . in ' the nervous system which are strengthened with each use. In time, if they are repeated often enough, these acts develop into habits. - From the child's point of view, nothing could be more unfavor able than such training. As time goes on end he is no longer a child) he will have tJ cope with the problem of : breaking off childish habits and of developing new and more mature ones to re place them. This is not easy, and as a result - many - people go through life behaving in the old, familiar patterns. ; 1 . .. LETTERS FROM READERS Meeting Emergencies! "Can you explain , why some people can meet emergencies in a calm, matter-of-fact way while others do not get so upset l&at they are more of a hindrance than a help?" (A) The explanation may be difference in temperaments, but in most cases it is a matter of training. People who grow up in large families where there are constant crises, or who grow up in environments where life does not : always run smoothly for them, learn when they are very young to meet crises. On the other hand, people who have spent their childhood days where life runs smoothly most of the time never get this training. As a result, they are not ready to cope with crisas when they ar'se. . Community .Work: "I am in my junior year in high school and have a part-time job over the week ends. My mother, who is very active in community work, thinks I should do some too. Is this wise?" (A) It would seem to me that you have about all you can do if you. want to do it welL After you finish school there will be time enough for you to some thing for your community. If you did not have the week-end job, you could do community vork now. However, if you try to add to what you are now doing, you - will overtax your strength and do nothing well. Children's Pel: "My children were so anxious io have a pet that "I bought a ranary. Now they pay no attention to it." ( A) A canary is not a good pet for children because they cannot play with it. Why not get a dog, cat, or hamster? This will be more trouble for you and your wife, hut more fun for the chil dren. ': (COPYRIGHT 1954, GENERAL FEATURES CORP.)
