But Janet Flanner triumphantly remains the last of a celebrated generation of expatriate . Writers. During most of her life abroad miss Flanner has interpreted France to americans under name Genet i a fortnightly letter from Paris column for the new yorker Magazine. Barely except for the years during the second world War has she returned to the United states. But this year represents her 50th in Paris and the occasion fittingly enough has been marked by the appearance of the second collection of her distinguished articles Paris Jour Nal volume ii 1965-1871. The first volume won the National Book award in 1966. So in re cent weeks miss been Back in the . For the publication of her Book. Just Don t sit there and say us she warned abruptly at the Start of a recent inter View before she departed. The husky voice and Salty caustic Tongue is a Flanner trademark. So is the Mobile expressive face the prominent beak like nose and the Brown eyes that turn reflective when she is asked about the past. Hemingway shared whisky with miss manner when they both were War correspondents in Paris. He was a very Good generous she re members. Gertrude Stem s laugh was one of the. Most wanning human Ever heard. It was a kindling laugh like the rumble of a country for miss Flanner the Golden twenties when she lived in Saint Germa in Des pres was a Happy time it she says a purely literary Quarter in her Paris portrait of woman begging for trouble following is the second of three articles on the ten Sions Between parents and their in Laws and Bow to ease them.

A Large Box of chocolates Lay Ipen on the sofa. But i said As Small lands dipped steadily into the i remember you never Al owed your children any can no i she said apolo ethically and my daughter in a s the same. But Well we Tad these in the House. And hey certainly keep them Here was the perfect portrait of a woman just begging for rouble from her in Laws. The ads would arrive Home stuffed with sweets and unable to cat their dinner. The Mother would complain to her husband i be told your Mother time and again not to give them anything to eat. The husband would defend his Mother. There would be a Row. Mom would ring up Granny and Tell her a few Home truths. All because a woman who brought her own children up strictly and sensibly throws All her better instincts out of the window once grandchildren come along. Or. George Gomer a sociologist at London s Belmont Institute has noted this strange phenomenon time and again. It s almost As though grand parents want to defy parents wishes although very rarely is this the he says. More often what is actually happening is that grandparents relieved of the responsibility with their own Chil too much the other they had Dren go Way. The older people get the Kinder they often become. With grandparents this kindness often leads to spoiling. After an afternoon at Granny a where his every whim has been indulged the child goes Home Back into the rough and Tumble of family life. No wonder there Are of course there is a brighter Side. Countless grannies Are a Tower of strength to Young wives always ready with Good advice Happy to help and baby sit whenever they re needed. Grandfathers Are friends and confidants to growing lads in a Way fathers can never be they re impartial yet involved. But Wise and experienced though they undoubtedly Are Many grandparents unwittingly upset their relations merely by disregarding the Golden Rule for family Harmony the upbringing of grand children is the responsibility of their parents. Whether you agree or not with the Way it s being done is really not your concern so Long As the Chil Dren Are not being offensively rude or unreasonably rambunctious. For instance or. Gomer recently came across a Case of children from a strictly vege tarian Home being stuffed with meat and fish every time they other such a problem has to be resolved and quickly. Every says or. Gomer is sometimes naughty when he goes to someone else s House to play and obviously should t be allowed to think he s going to get away with the problem is who is going to Deal with the offender if it s something minor Granny can probably administer a mild re Buke which might even have a double effect because it comes from someone the child likes and wants to impress. But what about some flagrant act of naughtiness should it be dutifully reported Back to the parents who will then take what belated action they think fit or should Granny or grand father if he is sufficiently in Censed mete out the punish ment says Joyce Parry Jones i hate delaying punishment if the naughtiness whatever it was took place Early in the afternoon to say when Yon go Home i m going to phone your Mother and Tell her what you will mean that the after noon will be ruined for the child who will probably be worried stiff about what will happen when he gets it All depends a the experts on How close the grandparents Are to both the child and his parents. If you Are close a Stern scolding or withholding of went for a Day to their grand-1 an expected treat should not be taken amiss by anyone. But Corporal punishment even of the Mildest kind should not be administered by anyone apart from parents. What else causes dissension Between Granny and mom mainly it seems such things As children s bedtimes. Twenty years ago the average four year old went to bed at 6 . Now it s 7 . Or even 8 . And later. Children s Lack of respect to parents also distresses quite a few grandparents. A Granny of my acquaintance thought it was quite wrong that her five Manitoba grown flavour fresh canned vegetables an adventure in flavour with a Story Book ending offs mow it tastes that realty counts n Morfen foods Ltd. Parents the excuse was that they looked As though they needed building up says or. Gomer. In fact it was up to the grandparents to respect and support the parents decision however much they disagreed with it Bat the role of a grandparent is not easy.
