'V Blow Hot, Blow Cold, Mothers.
By ETHEL G. PETERSON
Last evening i saw a six-year-old
rush down the walk, to throw both
arms around his mother, who was re
turning from a shopping trip; his
face was aglow, his eyes shining with
joy. Then I was dismayed to hear
the mother say pettishly, as she
pushed him aside, 'h'nr goodness
sake, leave me alone. Can't yon see
that I'm tired, and have my arms
ffill?" ,
No, si six-year-old dm <n't often
notice such things unless his attention
is called to them. 1 watched his
bright fare change, his lips quivering,
and his eyes filling with tears. I could
scarcely keep from picking him up
and comforting him.
Now, as it happened, a few days
before I had watolled that game young
mother rompfllg on the lawn with
her boy and girl, and bad seen her
end the game by gathering them both
into her arms with almost passionate
affection.
I know she really loves her chil
dren, but she is a ‘‘blow hot, blow
cold,” mother, who when tired or
nervous, treats her children with what
looks to an outsider almost like dis
like; then perhaps the next day she
bestows extravagant cares*ss upon
them. 1’oor children, they never know
what they are going to receive at
the hands of their mother. Yet she
would emphatically resent any impu
tation of unfairness in her conduct
toward them!
I 1 heard another mother of this soma
gentral type scolding her little daugh
ter one day unsparingly for what—
a tear in her glove! 1 wondered at
her harshness, myself, and was amus
ed when the child looked up at her,
and asked respectfully, "Mama, what
would you have to say If I stole
something?” I wondered too.
A week later the same child dis
obeyed a strict order of her mother's,
and canje tremblingly to tell mo
about it. I advised here to go to her
mother at once, and have it over with,
j She finally promised to, though she
said, "I know Mama will whip me,
I for sue said she would.”
A few days later 1 had an oppor
: tunity to question her ns to the out
i onie. She laughed and said, "Oh.
Mania was busy sewing, and she just
said, ‘Well, you've been very naughty,
and I'll certainly punish you if you
do it again!’”
That is the mother who at one
time pounces upon a child and
punishes her for some'mere trifle,
and at another time overlooks a
much more serious fault for which
the child herself expecets to bo
punished.
Are you a “blow hot, blow cold”
mother whose children never know
what to expect, or are you by your
own poise, fairness,, and self-control
i cultivating the same desirable quail
I ties in them?
