LOUISA'S LETTER Dear Louisa, I have i two year old daughter and sh. has a habit of saying a bad word when anything goes wrong. When I say anything to her about it she says "Mommy, I just said ???"Do you think I should ignore her or what? My three year old got a word from a little girl friend and I told her 1 was not going to let her play with the- little girl so she quit using it. But I have a problem with my two year old. Elizabeth-Ind. j Answer: Little children pick up words they hear and have no idea of what they mean. But when they say something that causes a stir they get atten tion and that is what many 1 children like. It doesnt pay to make too much over words they use because the impor tance of such an action im presses it on the child's mind and she sees it as a way of j getting more attention. The j best thing to do in such a situation is to remain calm and say that you dont think that is a pretty word for a little girl to use and you would rather she use some thing else when something goes wrong. Then suggest some words and make a game of it. The next time she comes out with the old word --and she will-pay no atten tion to her. Two and three year olds go through a phase of being contrary and trying to do thlftfes that they are told not to do. Spanking is not the answer to this problem but lots of patience and under standing will usually solve it, if given time. Louisa Dear Louisa, My hair is beginning to turn gray but it is not pretty but rather mousy looking. 1 have always had a horror of people who dyed their hair but I -am wondering if I should try that. Do you think that it ruins hair to dye it? A. G. La. Answer: You don't have to really dye your hair to make it look ! better for there are so many . good rinses on the market today that can be used along with your shampoo. These i can be found to match your i hair and are very easy to use. Go easy at first or get a j beauty operator to do it for you.
