Parents must be aware of the personal value of truth for their own sakes and not just for the sakes of their children. We cannot simply make a child believe in a truth because it’s good for them. Their perceptive spirits will sense when we are doing something to engineer or manipulate a certain response. Instead it is the authenticity of parental commitment to truth apart from the lives of the children that brings freedom to share or pass on that truth to them. In other words, a mature motive for passing on truth is that as a parent I hold that truth to have value for my life, independent of my children and their response to it (Tom Cohen).

INSTRUCTIONS

Any self-respecting Christmas tree has a right to complain If it isn't
decked out with a candy cane. The sugar, water, syrup, and cream of tartar
you combine and heat till the sugar's dissolved real fine. Divide into two
saucepans, boil, but don't stir, please, Until each lot 280 degrees. Add
1/2 ts peppermint to each lot and add the coloring to one, the other not:
place on an enamel or marble table to cool. (First oiling the table, as a
general rule). Like taffy you stretch and pull and form into ropes of red
and white, now twist them around again and again.
And form them into your candy cane.
Now on an oiled surface you allow them to harden, then announce to your
family that these is ready for your Christmas tree. FROM: DOLORES MCCANN
