' Mra. A. H. My husband ships our son anywhere, any time. Mr. A. H.-She leaves the dirty work to me, Mrs. A. H.-We have a 7' year-old son and I worry about what my husband is doing to him. My husband believes in instant correction to make an impression. Last Sunday we went to Atlantic City with another couple and their two chil dren, a boy Donald's age and a little girl of 4. As we walk ed along the Boardwalk, a strong wind came up and we stopped to put sweaters on the children. Then 1 remem bcred I . had left Donald's sweater in the car. Just show ing off, Donald said to me, "You're one big dope!" My husband slapped him instant ly. Donald yelled and sulked a while. But then we all had frozen custards and he forgot about it. I hope. But this kind of thing shouldn't continue. It's embar rassing. Other parents wait to discipline their children at home, ,' Mr. A. H.-It will be more embarrassing if Donald gets punched in the nose some day by somebody else, for blurt ing out something insulting. My wife says she hopes he forgot the slap, I hope he didn't. All I know Is that he's picked lip a lot of fresh talk and he bettor learn where to Use it. Ho thinks when we're out in a crowd he can say any old thing. I want to nip that fast. . And I don't believe In long speeches and explanations, or in waiting a few hours to tell him he shouldn't have talked like that before. One quick swat is better than all that. I'm sorry if this upsets my wife. I only want it to upset Donald enough to make him think twice before he misbe haves. She gets him all mixed up with her soft ideas. She says he'll grow out of it, no matter what he smashes and what trick he pulls. With her he's never sure about what's right and what's wrong. I leave him no doubt. Tht Councili "All's fair in love," they say. That applies to discipline, too. If It's guid ed by love for your child and not some leftover anger it's usually all right.

Medford Hotel Lobby 2 i SP 3-7543 effect. But, In view of the fact that Donald is learning a few other things from the quick public slap, his father might do well to consider some alternatives for correct ing a young boy. Donald may be learning that's it's O.K. to say things as long as Dad isn't around. And Dad's extra mean be cause none of the other fa thers slap children In front, of their friends. And anything uaa nits you for is wrong and whatever he doesn't hit you for is right. Those are some of the fringe effects of strongarm treatment and Mr, H. might not want them in the punishment package, We suggest that Mr. H. try the quieter methods first of calling Donald up short-a warning, a reminder, even a look. This brings Donald fur ther along the road to self- discipline than physical as sault. And self-discipline is the ultimate goal. A parent must gradually relinquish the job and trust that the child can recognize right from wrong himself. Another objection to the hasty slap is the possible in justice of it. Suppose Donald had been taunted by other children, or suppose ne was bursting with anger because his mother had kept him from the ferris wheel? We don't know what preceded his out burst. Mr. H. didn't stop to find out, either. A child, no less than an adult, is entitled to explode once in a while too. The parent's function is to lead him to "socially ap proved" outlets, and away from the name-calling and flailing about that comes na turally. A slap may silence him, but it doesn't lead any where. Mrs. H., in turn, must do her share as a guide. Chil dren don't always just "get over" things miraculously, A bad habit may get deeply en trenched merely because a mother laughs it off as smart or cute. Donald is entitled to clear-cut signals from both parents. Such direction is a form of love. All discipline, in a sense, Is a form of love because it's a protection. It teaches a child to cope. This is the long- range purposes. A slap is but a punctuation mark, all right occasionally to make a point. But it's no substitute for pa tient and calm explanations of the WHY of rules.
