“At a very early age children can comprehend what is plainly and simply told them, and by kind and judicious management can be taught to obey. . . . The mother should not allow her child to gain an advantage over her in a single instance. And in order to maintain this authority it is not necessary to resort to harsh measures; a firm, steady hand and a kindness which convinces the child of your love will accomplish the purpose.”
