The theory of paternalism in government is sim- ple of statement though diiiicult of application. The father is not merely the guardian of his chil- dren, he is their guide, their superior, their law- giver, in a word, their final authority. To them he is taste, judgment, conscience. "Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right," says Paul. That is, this is the children's right- eousness. In the early days of childhood this authority of the father is necessarily exercised in ever...y department of life and over every act. The father determines what shall be the food and the clothing ; he regulates the hours of sleep, of play, of study ; he decides whether the child shall go to school, to what school, and during what hours; whether the child shall go to church, to what church, and on what occasions. He takes the child's earnings, if he earns anything, and directs their expenditure. He is not merely a protector of the child from the wrongs of others, but is the child's supreme arbiter in every question of life.
