There are no inevitable outcomes of social class in child rearing．At the same time, there is no question that social class is important factor in how children are raised and the kind of adults that children become．Regarding social class, sociologists have found that parents socialize their children into the behaviors and norms of their work worlds．Members of the working class are closely supervised and are expected to follow explicit rules at their jobs．If they do not follow the precise rules and do as they are told, they will not keep their jobs． Their experience influences how they deal with their children．As a result, their concern is less with their children's motivations and more with their children's outward conformity．Thus they are more apt to use physical punishment in managing their children．On the other hand, middle-class parents, who are expected to take more initiative on the job, are more concerned that their children develop curiosity, self-expression, and self-control．They are also more likely to withdraw privileges or affection than to use physical punishment．

It takes a long time to grow a tree．How long? Well, pine trees are the quickest growing trees, but still, they take twenty years to reach a size suitable for cutting and harvesting．An oak takes about sixty years to grow to a good size．A redwood may take hundreds of years．Lumber companies, which make their money on trees, depend on those that grow quickly．Therefore, they are always looking for methods to make trees grow faster．So far, the secret to fast growing trees seems to lie in " super-seeds．" These are seeds that are gathered from the quickest growing trees in a forest．One company searched 100,000 acres of trees and selected the seeds from just fifteen trees．These two ounces of seed were enough to plant several hundred new trees．Eventually, when these trees have grown, seeds will again be taken only from the fastest growing trees of crop．This process of artificial selection will yield, in the future, a super-tree that will grow in half the time it takes normal trees to develop．Unfortunately, it takes a long time for a plan like this to reach its goal．The Weyerhauser Lumber
Corporation, which started its first collection of seed in 1958, is just now beginning to harvest the
super-seeds of the first generation of the faster growing trees．
This selection centers on________
