Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Mother´s Assistant: And Young Lady´s Friend Deeply interesting and soul-absorbing as the formation of your children´s characters is to you, you are in danger of feeling an excess of anxiety, which, by making you really unhappy, may do much to defeat its own object. We wish to see our children good and happy. We tell them that to be good, is the way to be happy. But will they be likely to be impressed with this truth if they see our brow contracted by care, or our cheeks frequently suffused with tears? Far be it from a mother to feel that spirit of indifference, which would enable her to look with ´equal eye´ on virtue and vice in her children. But let her trust them in his hand who is Love itself, and endeavor to acquire that peaceful state of mind, which will always be accompanied by serenity of countenance and kindness of manner. Were we to inquire what makes home most happy, we should unhesitatingly answer, the good and amiable dispositions cherished there; and so great is the influence of example, that where parents are exemplary in these respects, the same spirit will, in a greater or less degree, diffuse itself through the family circle. And let not a father, who meets the storms of life, and the many vexations incident to business, think his home the place where to vent the irritable feelings which politeness obliges him to restrain when abroad.
