Page 8B—MIRROR-HERALD—Thursday, November 10, 1977 Let Children Play Role Choosing Clothes Anyone with an elemen tary school child has heard the protest, “But nobody else has to wear. . . The desire to choose their own clothing is only one ex pression of a child's growing independence, says Pam Outright, agricultural exten sion clothing specialist at A & T State University. Through school and school activities the child developes an interest in people outside his or her immediate family. As their circle of associa tions increases, it becomes important for them to be ac cepted by their new school friends, says Ms. Outright. As they seek the admira tion of new friends, their parents approval becomes less important to them. It is because of their healthy developing independence that their clothing protests become more frequent. Because clothing is something they have known since infancy, it is very per sonal. Ohildren associate clothing not only with them selves but also with others. Olothing is a natural and logical medium through which they can assert them selves. At this time in their lives, children need the self con fidence that belonging to a group of friends provides. To them, part of the feeling of belonging is looking like their friends. If their clothing is too dif ferent from that of school friends, a feeling of in feriority may develop. Con cern with looking different may intefere with their par ticipation in school and ac tivities. Children’s growing in dependence is also expressed in their wanting to do things themselves. As they reach the ages 7 to 8, they no longer want parents to select clothing for them and are much happier if they are given a choice from among a few things. From about nine on, children are developing the ability to select things for themselves and want to be consulted before clothes are bought or made for them. Although the way he or she looks is very important to an elementary school child, unless encouraged to do so, they will take little or no in terest in caring for their clothes. They drop things where they are removed and throw clothing around. Constant encouragement to hang clothing up and report damages will pay off when a child is about nine, says Ms. Cutright. He or she won’t be perfect at that age, but will continue to improve on the habit. Caring for clothing is one way children can learn a feel ing of ownership and a sense of responsibility, she says. Blooming Plant May Be Slower When selecting your tomato plants this spring, you might be better off passing up those already blooming or bearing small fruit and choose smaller, younger plants. Many gardeners buy bloom ing plants thinking they will get tomatoes quicker, but this isn't always the case, ac cording to North Carolina State University extension horticulturists. Developing fruit puts a nutrient drain on plants. If this is going on at the time the plant is experiencing transplant shock, slow growth can be expected. Generally, it is better to transplant before blooms form. An alternative it to grow the plant in a large container that would allow good root development. Putting the plant into the garden row with a good root system will reduce the transplant shock. Tha largest living bird is tha ostrich, which doesn't fly.
