j 18 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, November 4, 1965 CHILD GUIDANCE Boy's Careless Work Habits -- Need Patience And Guidance By GARRY C. MYERS, PhD [vi For some reason more girls than boys do neat and legible written work. Often the teacher is distressed over the untidy) written work of some boys from eight to 14 years of age. Some- times these boys excel in oral work. But unless they learn to write more neatly they may be handi- capped in their schoolwork right up through high school or col- lege. One of these boys may be yours. You may not have been concerned about the matter till his teacher called it to your attention. Then you yourself may be distressed over the messy ee -' his -- writing. You may incline , then to rebuke and shame him|S4in in this direction. for his careless work.

He may always be in a hurry. He may have poor mus- cular co-ordination. You may wisely have his physician check on him and advise you. j Even so, you certainly will try to find ways to help this lad write more neatly and legibly. Win him to be willing to prac- tise for 10 or 15 minutes at writing under a neat model of a} line each evening.

Otherwise he might copy from his own writing instead of the model. As he prepares written work for school, encourage him to do the work slowly, carefully and ing to have you inspect this written work and to require it himself at times more neatly. Express strong pleasure over his successes. He may have no sense of mar- gins on his paper. You might draw faint lines on the left and right sides of it, helping him to letters and figures give this boy special trouble. On these you might be able to give him spe- cial help. I can remember that, when I was about nine years old, in the grades, my number work al- ways looked very messy. My wise and kind teacher sat down beside me one day and said. "Garry, let me show you how to do that." I was so impressed with his kindness and the neat models he made for me that I took heart and was surprised at my |improvements afterwards.

"There is enormous pressure | put on youngsters at school to get through to go to university | to be successful.
