Can't You Do Something
About Jane ?
"Jane seems to hava lost Interest in her
school work. And when I try to revive her
interest ... try to get her lo pay
attention ... she responds with e ther
sullen &!Ienoe or a defiant attitude. Won t .
you see what you can do?"
When the teacher sends a note like that,
what should you do. Mother ? Resort to dis
ciplinary measures ? Promise a prize for betier
WMaybe a scolding is needed. Maybe a reward.
But maybe cither will simply aggravate The leal
lrForCwhen a child begins to slip in school, it a
likely that some physical disorder ls at the
bottom of it— a -disorder -which, if permitted to
continue untreated, might cast a shadow over all
the long years that He ahead of the child. And
the wise thing, therefore, is to consult jour
dHef' might quickly interpret the trouble as
approaching deafness: for he knows that lack
of interest'.' and "defiant altitude'- may merely
be the child's subconscious efforts lo lilae the
affliction from the rest of the class. Impaired
hearing is a common cause of impaired school
work. ,,
But it Is not the only cause. "Slowness can
frequently be attributed to failing eyesight . . .
"Inability to concentrate" may he traced to
under-actlvity of the thyroid gland . . . "ln-
difference" may be anxmla putting a drain on
I the child's vitality. 4i_f 41_ , , .
There are many other may be
, wrong— disorders that can easily hide their true
meaning from the child, the teacher .. and the
parents ... but not from the penetrating know
ledge of the doctor. .
If your child's work in school is not all it
should be — If It has shown a steady tendency
, to slip from a former standard— see your doctor.
1 You owe this sensible step both to your child's
1 happiness and to your own future peace of mind.
