In an attempt to add some light without adding more heat to this nearly burned-out discussion, may I simply point interested readers to a book I found yesterday: "Without Spanking or Spoiling," by Elizabeth Crary, published by Parenting Press in Seattle, WA, for $7.95. It's sub-titled something like "a guide to pre-school guidance," and covers the different stages in child development, and a variety of techniques for shaping your child's behavior without violence. Looked pretty good to me. -- Jan Wolitzky, AT&T Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, NJ; (201) 582-2998
