12>&ud'
BY DORIS JONES
A few months ago as I fran-
tically raced to get ready for
Sunday School on time, I called
to my young son to let me comb
his hair. He didn't answer. I
called again. There was no reply.
After searching, I found him
playing in the garage with his
best clothes on. I grabbed him
by the arm and yanked him into
the bathroom where I began
combing his hair vigorously. He
asked, "Whatcha so mad about?"
I said, "I am in a hurry." He
said. "Well, I'm not."
My mind began thinking back
to the many times when I had
hurried him along. He was
never in a hurry and indeed,
why should he be? Why should
an child have to be in a hurry?
Surely the God who made people
did not intend for them to race
through life and be subject to
heart attacks and ulcers. All too
soon children enter into the
adult world of keeping schedules
and hurrying so that they may
keep ever appointment expectcd
of them.
Almost ever home that I know
about has some sort of schhed-
ule for their children. The chil-
dren get out of bed, eat break-
fast, dress and are off to school
where all day they must face
another schedule of studying,
surpervised playing, eating and
home again where they snack,
get their homework, watch tele-
vision and bathe. Then it is
back to bed. We all agree that
some sort of schedule is absolute-
ly necessary, but I wonder if
there could be a little more
freedom of time in which they
could cultivate imagination and
daydream or just exercise their
bodies with games of their own
choosing. Have you ever ob-
served a child just "turned
loose" on his own for a few
minutes? They do many fascin-
ating things like walking a
fence, petting a dog or cat,
jumping a mud puddle, follow-
ing a bug to see where it lives,
building all kinds of things
with scrap materials, collecting
rocks, climbing trees or just
simply sit on the ground and
think. This time is not wasted.
It is well spent. Adults would
profit by copying some of the
routine.
