Gandhiji's childhood was asolemn one and lacking


strangely in the frivolities with which we surround
our children today. Children of those days had a
curiously grown-up status, maybe because of the
early marriages to which they had to submit, but
they soon learned to take up and acquaint
themselves with responsibilities and Gandhiji
was no exception to this. Though the youngest in
the family he acquired the grown -up wisdom by
consorting vith his clders, particularly his mother,
imbibing her wisdom and sound common sense.
From the earliest days, his love for truth at any
cost dominated his mind and he was free from the
tiring little innocent lies that fill the life of any child.
