Fully conscious of the wrong of lying he considers it the lesser of the two evils. : Similar in its effect is the nagging of chil- dren, in which mothers are more prone to in- dulge than fathers. Exhibitions of constant scolding, faultfinding, and querulous tem- per, interpersed with boxing of ears, smact- ing of cheeks, and slapping of hands, all tend to thwart the child's mental and moral growth and contribute to the making of a wayward son. Such punishment is largely mental but none the less... reprehensible be- cause it lacks the element of physical pain.
