1. Fears as painfully to recognize it, we invite in children's souls. We do it differently, mostly of good motives. It seems to us that if the kid knows that there is a danger and that it is necessary to be afraid of it, then it will allow it to avoid it. We sometimes consciously, but most often on a habit, without giving the report in the words and actions, we intimidate fearless kids, we tell about nonexistent angry characters, we learn his imagination to draw terrible images, constantly supplying with new associations and it is more terrible than one another descriptions.

Besides, it is necessary to acquaint very carefully the kid with animated movies, especially with those which it is difficult to call lovely and kind. It is impossible to punish the child at all, leaving one in the large and dark room. The darkness should not be associated with something unpleasant and spiteful.
