For those of you who have not yet seen the November 1985 issue of 
ATLANTIC, I recommend the article by Bruno Bettleheim, ``Punishment
Versus Discipline'' which is the the cover story.  The abstract is included
in the table of contents, so if you need something to motivate your reading
this article, I quote:

	Punishment teaches a child merely that those who have power
	can force others to do their will.  Only through emulation
	can a child acquire desirable values and a discipline based on
	them.  The maxim ``Do as I say, not as I do'' won't work
	with children.

An excellent and provocative article that should be read by all parents.
