For Parents Only: The Doctor Discusses Discipline

MERRITT B. LOW M.D.

This is a small, "folksy" book on advice to parents, and belongs in the series of Dr. Richardson's books along similar lines for boys, girls, mothers and fathers, teenagers, grandparents, and others involved in the raising and growing of children. Almost condescending at times, it falls in the category of "common sense" books, chatty, shy of techniques. Even though modernized to the extent of having TV, P.T.A., and teenage sections and overtones, it perhaps assumes too little knowledge if not too little intelligence in our present day adults. Did not Dr. Aldrich cover Clara Davis' famous eating experiments, and the problem of putting children to bed, some 25 years ago? There are other inadequacies in modern child-nutrition besides "forcing."
