WHAT is a child's true STATUS? HOW QUICKLY should we expect children to act "grown-up"? What about dress, mannerisms, play? HOW should we teach our children to act in front of their elders? My, such sweet little children!" exclaimed the waitress as the mother of three, two boys and a girl, took her place at the table in the fashionable restaurant. That was before bedlam. Later, as the harassed waitress, the indignant manager, and the annoyed customers breathed a sigh of relief as the monstrously disobedient little toddlers left with their mother, no one in the whole restaurant thought the children were "sweet!" Pretty is as pretty does - goes the old saying. And HOW TRUE! - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
