Looking Ahead
By Laura Lee (your secret pal)
We have had several requests
for something about mothers and
their problems. Daily we hear
about Juvenile and Parent De
linquency. There seems to be no
solution to these problems.
I think that it would be very
interesting to have a mother’s
and childrens discussion in this
column for a while. Since neither
the parent nor the child is entirely
to blame, why not let the parents
get together and express their
ideas and give the teenage or
even the younger people the same
privilege.
In order to begin this discussion
I would like to make a few sug
gestions. First, I believe that
training of children begins at or
even before birth. Feedings and
rests at definite periods promote
regular habits before the child
is really conscious of if.
Little habits such as fits of
temper and unwillingness to co
operate, and even strike the
parent may be noticed and cor
rected at a very early age. Then
later a more strict method of
discipline will not be needed.
The child’s respect and love for
the parent develops from the
parents self-control, self-respect,
and complete interest in the child
and its welfare.
Whenf we express our dislikes
of our acquaintances, churches,
or other community organizations
before the child, he will in most
cases form a prejudice against
these individuals with no other
reasons except the parent’s per
sonal opinion which may or not
be fully justifiable. Above all
never prejudice a child against
his teacher or others who have
charge of him at any time.
Now let us here from you.

Dear Laura Lee:
I am an out of state student at
tending the University of Nebras
ka, a G. I. still feeling the sting
of loneliness as a result of my
three years over seas’s service. I
am terribly discouraged-perhaps
I am expecting to much, but it
seems to me that the people of
Lincoln are terribly selfish and
unfriendly to Newcomers. I came
here to study, it is true, but to
me the social aspect of life is very
important. My family is as pice
as any and we always retained
certain moral standards but in
Lincoln one is almost forced to
deviate. No one ever invites you
to their home; at church there is
a gradual nod and any number
of times I have had people to
simply stare at me until I came
within a few feet and then turn
their heads. What can I do that
the people here might know that
I and many other students would
like to feel a part of the com
munity.
Very truly yours,
V. C.
Dear Laura Lee:
I am a mother who has failed
utterly in the rearing of my
daughter who is now 15. I see
many of my mistakes but it is too
late now. I have little or no con
trol over her and I love her so
I can’t bear to think of something
happening to her. All of my talk
ing seems to do no good. If you
have any suggestions please help
me. I would like to talk person
ally with you. I am at the point
of desparation.
Yours,
A Bewildered Mother
