About this book

Henry Clay Trumbull's Hints on Child-Training is a series of hints put forward for the benefit of young parents, and the preface says such hints may be helpful where a formal treatise on the subject would prove bewildering. A chapter headed IX. LETTING ALONE AS A MEANS OF CHILD-TRAINING says not doing is always as important, in its time and place, as doing. The chapter on letting alone says child-training is a necessity, but that there is a danger of over-doing in the line of child-training, and that the neglect of child-training is a great evil.

The text says tenderness in pointing out to a child the wiser way of meeting his fears is better than severity on the one hand, or ridicule on the other. The text says unreasoning or instinctive fears are common to both the brightest and the dullest children. The text says many a child has been turned aside from the overcoming of his fears through the untimely ridicule of him for his possession of those fears.
