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. ':

A TRIBUTE TO
OUR YOUNG FOLKS
' Someone once said that youth is wasted on the
' young. That may have .been true some years
ago. But, asJ we see it, that bit of philosophy
- has long since been outmoded. Look at the
wonderful things our young men and women
are doing today! Scientists, doctors, engineers,
merchants, political leaders, fashion designers,
educators, home makers! There is no phase of,
' modern living in which young ideas and talent
are not brilliantly important. So we salute you .
k who are buoyantly doing things in the sunrise
of living. You are our hope for tomorrow. And
we know it's in good hands! "
