________________ Children are not mature enough to understand the circumstances. If there is congestion in the house, children do not have the maturity to understand that they cannot spread out their toys and books or sit in the middle of the room. Elders are able to comprehend their financial position and contain their desire to purchase something even though they may have liked it. A child does not have the maturity to match his desires with the financial conditions of the family. • You cannot jump on beds made for guests, • You cannot turn the house topsy turvey by throwing pillows, • You cannot scribble and paint the walls with chalks and pens, • You cannot push a person who is applying mehendi on some-one's hands, • You cannot touch the paints while the colour is still wet, • You cannot interfere when two people are talking, The child does not understand many such things. If the child's parents understand this much, then the infamous dialogue of "can't you understand this much ?” accompanied by the spanking will automatically discipline itself. Govardhan Tripathi had compiled the famous drama “Saraswatichandra" and his little daughter unknowingly had made a kite from it's textual pages and was flying it. A child is one who will make a toy of what it likes and elders are those who will not rest till they eliminate that which they don't like. Second Feitioru m Second Edition
