Newspaper Page TextTWO MEDFORD (OREGON) Strict Teachers Often Favorites Says Psychiatrist Chicago The strictest teach ers are often; "the favorites" of their, pupils, a well-known psy chiatrist declares in an , article in the January issue of 41 Na tion Parent - Teacher, - monthly magazine of the National Con gress of Parents and Teachers. ' Dr. Flanders Dunbar .writes, "Strange as it may seem, chil dren like order, and they like help in planning their? tune Hence their preference for the teacher who makes them toe the mark. -She urges parents arid teach ers iofollow a "consistent mid dle ,'way"- in" disciplining chil' dreh. 'Overly rigid discipline or no discipline at all is better than . inconsistent discipline," she maintains. "Too much strictness, if consistent, or too little strict" ness, if consistent, is better , than weaving a" wobbling course." A ' child subjected to erratic . disci" pline, Dr.' Dunbar warns, may even become delinquent. She. makes' clear, however ', that she strongly opposes either extreme in discipling. The child- rearing philosophy widely; held in recent years, and summed up in the phrase; "Darling; do as you ' please." actually "has not been progress,'; she contends. "The ' pendulum, we know now, ran swing too . far in each direction," ; Dr. Dunbar points out. ; "Those who try to hold it at one extreme or the other find themselves in trouble, and they are likely to have troubled chil' dren. While unswerving advo cates of one or. the other of these .views ; argue ; incessantly about modern education and what it is, their children remain unedu cated.".. : . She . emphasizes that "chil dren must, blow pff steam . . Without f a. : safety valve, they burst the boiler; without control, they lose backbone and focus," she explains. "What then," she asks Vis the Jbest way of letting children, give -vent to their feel ings?" : - r - . v-. ' Dr. Dunbar maintains .that the child whose parents and teach ers are striving to hold a middle way "has a dependable safety Valve." V-rf ,r ,. ... She recalls a visit she made to : the. home of ."ultra-progressive parents,"' whose two small children played - tricks on ,the guests, upset teacups, and called their - mother "an , unpretty name." "Sooner or later, if they continue, this madcap, uncon trolled behavior, they're going to bump infthe few." the psy chiatrist .observes. r ' "; " ' .- She : indicates , that books on how. to rear children cannot give parents all .the knowledge, they need.; "The desire to be a good parent isnt : enough, ' if all we do is read conscientiously the voluminous -' literature, of DO'S and DONTS for parents. For getting what we know about ourselves and our children and also our own. innfer re sourceswe may become fright ened and confused.. . . The fath er and mother who 1 are really interested ; in their .child, . who are more or less able to think of him objectively and keep him outside the aura of the troubles that they have to face together, have enough' common sense to use knowledge .wisely."
