No one blames the mother for lov. ing her boy, thinking he Is about right even If he is “different” from others, but it 1s this very mother care that interferes with the boy's chances of remaining normal like other young- glers, When the boy gets into trouble with other youngsters the mother consid- ers the other youngsters to be entire- iy to blame; If the trouble occurs at school then the school or the teacher must be to blame, Some one has spoken of this boy as the “overprotected” boy, and quite rightly states that the parent is at fault and In her anxiety to make things “smooth” for him actually takes away his strength of character, He learns to depend upon the parent for everything including getting him out of trouble when he is in the wrong. Unfortunately if this overprotection manhood or womanhood and is always self, In other words the youngster Is “out of step” with life, and only by getting “in step” can the proper mental de- velopment occur, You can thus see that If any prog- ress Is to be made with the over protected child, It means that the mother or father should be taught that the youngster must learn to stand on his own feet, make his own progress, take his own defeats, fight his own battles, and suffer his just punish. ment, No one wants any more war; not a single nation in the world, and not éven the real soldier himself wants it.
