Mother Is Too Selfish Sometimes Bit MARTHA LEE "Mother love." the sure fire theme for novelists, playwrights, song writer: and scenarists, long has been good for a hearty cheer and huzzah from the dear public. Mainly because mother love so often is unfailingly unselfish, nobic, fine and quite the most completely beautiful emotion known to the human race. But once in a while, up jumps a mama whose mother love simply will not follow the scenarists’ style of a self-sacrificing female parent. She will not be a generous, bountiful, big-hearted mama, whose life has been sacrificed to the comfort and welfare of her children. Instead ol laying aside all personal hopes and plans, so that the offspring may have a chance to rear hLs head above the masses, through education and social advantages, such mothers rear the boy or girl until he is old enough to wrap a package, drive a truck, plug in a phone call, and send him hiking off on jobs to help keep the wolf from the door. Become Dependent Such mothers become dependent upon their children from the time their youngsters can toddle. They derive all their joy, sorrow’, peace of mind, anger, contact with the outside world and what not from the children. The woman suffering from “mother love" such as the movies have put into vogue is just as much a pain as the selfish, heartless mother who demands everything of her children. But you can't beat this kind of mother love for draining the lives of her children to the last drop. Dear Mb s l.fc l am 25 years old. I have twr brothers, one younger and one older than myself. My father has been dead since I as 12. My mother, of course, has had to make great sacrifices for us. so we might finish school. I have been working since I was 18. and giving every cent of the money to my mother, except what it took for me to buy my clothes and pay my small expenses downtown. My older brother has married tnd my younger one is engaged. When my older brother married. I thought mother was going to die, she was so heart broken. Nw that my younger brother has announced intentions of marrying. she is a little more sensible about It. but she still feels that they are doing her an injustice. She seems to feel that they are being ungrateful to her for the years of sacrifice she spent In educating and rearing them. Boy 1.0 ves Hrr Now. Miss I.ee. here's the point.. I too am in love, and the boy loves me, too. We want to get married. I barely suggested the possibility of marrying and mother just about had a spasm. She said I was all she had left. That sons were ungrateful and thoughtless, but that she knew she always could depend upon me to take care of her and be with her. Since that mere mention, she has been rather ill. She has felt too bad for me to leave her on the nights I have had dates. I know that I should be appreciative of all she has done. But Is it. right for her to deny me my life. I am in such a qaundrv. Should I come right out and tell her I want to marry, or should I wait until she is feeling all right again, and bring her around to the idea slowly? DISTRESSED. Your mother is playing ’possum. She is working on your sympathy. That's one of the oldest feminine tricks known. She is making it impossible for you to mention your future without feeling like a lowdown, heartless wretch. She means well, all right. But she’s on the wrong track, absolutely. You will have to have a talk with her. She probably will rave and rant, and maybe faint, if she is a finished actress at stopping an unpleasant conversation, but don’t let her slow you down or direct you from your original intention. She has got to be made to uiteerstand that giving vour entire life to her is not good, either for you or for her. You have your own life to lead. It is not her intense love for you that makes her want you to remain. It is her selfishness. She hates the thought ol being alone. But it would be much better to be alone than to live with a heart turned to stone with bitterness. DINNER IS HELD BY SPEAKERS’ FORUM Mrs T N.
