They need, too. to try out that authority to sec if it is firm and reliable. A child needs to understand and accept behavior goals and limits. They must look rca from his point of view. Nothing is more harmful to his win-abl- e personality and his development of than to feel that the consequences of his actions are determined by the whims of an adult. The child needs help to see the reasons for rules, and to trace the relations between his choices and the results. Ho needs to have an area within which he can experiment with his own choices and make mistakes which will not be permanently harmful. Then he needs sympathetic help from an adult to appraise what he has done, lie needs the experience of working with others on the problems of living to see what goals and limits are needed for a solution. causc-and-cffc- ct by W.
