It isn't good for you. It isn't right that you should. You must stay home, get your lessons, and go early to bed," to be obliged to say that might hurt son's feelings. It might hurt the parent's feelings too, which would be worse, Besides, son might complain and wheedle and sulk and so create an unhappy atmosphere in, the home, to dispel which the afore- said fonctand indulgent parent would have to give in, and let son . have his way. That method, clearly, is too darned hard. It is annoying and unpleasant, besides being too great a strain oh the will power. How much better "the easiest way" !
